On March 30, comedian Alex Duong has passed away at 42 after fighting Alvila Rabda Mio Sarcoma, a tough soft tissue cancer. He builds a name and stand up and popped up on shows like Bluebloods, always keeping that positive vibe right up to the end. Back in January, an Instagram page called Little Saigon shared his health update and kicked off a fundraiser for support. Alex jumped in the comments with claps and said he'd walk out of their strong, firing up fans who flooded the post with encouragement. His close friend Hilary Steele broke the news on the GoFundMe page, saying he went peacefully this morning, surrounded by loved ones. He got to say goodbye to his wife Christina and their five-year-old daughter Everest, a moment that hit everyone hard. The original goal got met thanks to the outpouring, but now with new costs for the family, they're asking folks to keep chipping in if they can. Alex's spirit lives on through his comedy and the love he shared. Alex told his family close as they celebrate his life ahead.
