“I am so [in] gratitude to everybody who donated to my brother’s fundraiser. It allowed him to live his last few years stress-free,” Philip Alexander said. “It will also pay for his funeral during this difficult time.”
The cause of death was not stated, but in a Feb. 26 TikTok video, his social media manager announced he had been rushed to the emergency room and tested positive for COVID-19. He died March 11.
Despite relying on the iron lung for survival since 1952, Mr. Alexander was still able to successfully obtain a law degree from the University of Texas at Austin and passed the bar in 1986, according to Wikipedia. He also published a book in 2020.
