From 05/10/14 Anchorage Daily News: "During his life Mike Alex was known as the best fisherman in Cook Inlet. He was also a skilled carpenter who restored the 140-year-old St. Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church in Eklutna with his sons, completing construction on a new church building in 1962. Alex was a 28-year veteran of the Alaska Railroad, where he was section foreman, and the father of 13 children with wife Nellie. Most important of all, Alex was the last traditional chief of the Dena'ina Athabascans, and he tried to organize his fellow villagers to fight against the encroachment on their land by the federal government. Chief Alex Park, adjacent to Eagle River Elementary School, commemorates him. He died in 1977 at age 70."
