William X. Alex "Billy" 71 of Dennis, died Wednesday November 16, 2016 at the McCarthy Care Center in Sandwich, after a courageous battle with cancer.

He was the husband of the late Karen A. (Jensen) Alex.

Born in Dorchester, Billy was the son of Peter and Elizabeth (Elipoulos) Alex, originally of Greece.

Billy was an incredible father, partner, friend and helper to many. He moved to Cape Cod in the early 1970's with his parents, and later married Karen A. (Jensen) Alex, formerly of Dorchester. Bill was a skilled carpenter and built the home he lived in until his death.

His greatest joys were his family, Cape Cod beaches, walks by the harbor, his new grandchild and the England Patriots.

Billy is survived by his son, Peter W. Alex of South Yarmouth; a daughter Beth Alex Villalobos of Dallas, TX and her husband, Armando; his new granddaughter, Leighton Olivia, who he was able to meet and hold prior to his passing. He is also survived by his loving companion Judy Fleming, many nieces and nephews and lifelong friends from Dorchester and Cape cod. In addition to his wife and parents, Bill was predeceased by two brothers, James and George Alex. Billy will be greatly missed.
