June 24, 1946 — August 7, 2018

Alexander A. Nash Jr., 72, of Naples, FL (formerly of Hunterdon County, New Jersey) died peacefully on Tuesday, August 7, 2018, at the Naples Community Hospital in Naples, FL.

He was born in Manhattan, NY, on June 24th, 1946, the son of Alexander A. Sr. and Marion Tabor Nash.

He earned a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Accounting from Susquehanna University in Selingsgrove, PA, where he was a member of Phi Mu Delta Fraternity. He went on to earn a Master’s Degree in Business Administration from Fairleigh Dickinson University in Madison, NJ.

Alex began his career working for the public accounting firm of Main LaFrentz and Company in New York, NY. He went on to have a long and successful career for Public Service Electric and Gas in Newark, NJ until his retirement to Naples, FL in 2004.

His hobbies throughout life included camping, fishing, biking, gardening, and restoring antique trucks and cars. During his retirement he was a member of the Naples-Marco Antique Automobile Club of America. He participated in many car shows where he often displayed his two prized possessions, a 1953 MGTD and a 1991 Lotus Elon. Both went on to win several awards, including some Best in Shows, which gave him great satisfaction.
