Carlos, liked to be called 'Los Dog', moved to Youngstown in 1983 after the passing of his mother Lois Williams. He resided with his uncles, Robert (Pearl)Alexander, then with Fred (Ellen) Alexander, then his cousin, Laticia Alexander, before entering residential living.
Carlos had a passion for listening to music, especially the 'GOGO' music he introduced his family to when he moved here, dancing and hanging out in his community talking to everyone who took time to talk with him. His smile and loud presence in his community will be remembered fondly.
He leaves behind a legacy of love and resilience and what true self-determination looks like, the good, the bad and the indifferent.
He is survived by family: a host of cousins and countless friends and extended family members who will cherish his memory and most of all, his special love, Candice Diane Hall.
Though he left us too soon, Carlos's spirit will continue to live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
A celebration of his life will be held on Saturday, May 3, 2025 at 12:00 p.m., at Augustine Funeral Home, 75 Midlothian Boulevard, Youngstown, OH 44507 (234) 254-8403. Friends may call at 11:00 a.m.
In his memory, the family asks that the next time you see a person with a Developmental Disability treat them with love, kindness, patient and respect.
Rest well, Carlos. You are deeply loved and will never be forgotten.
