ALEXANDER JOSHUA STEPHEN HOUSTON It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Alexander Houston, born February 9, 1992, beloved son of Clark and Angelika Houston, at Childrens Hospital, on Saturday, May 6, 2000. He was predeceased by his grandparents Hildegard (May 14, 1990) and Josef Orlikowski (October 18, 1992).
