*Episodes S5 E5. (2017) [Dick LeBlanc]: Alex played in just 2 episodes in the earlier series, playing Matt LeBlanc's father, and died before this series was made. His character's death from a heart attack is dealt with in this episode. (Thanks to Brian)
==Video Game Deaths==
*Fallout: New Vegas (2010) [Big Sal]: If siding against the Omertas, Alex is killed, along with Alex Mendoza, by Laura Bailey/Yuri Lowenthal or Liam O'Brien. If siding with the Omertas then Alex is presumably killed offscreen by John Doman's men when John betrays the Omertas.
