Maxxwel Avon Alston was born to Matthew Alston and Regina Kennel Carlos on March 3, 1996. He completed his earthly Journey on October 2, 2025.  We know he was welcomed into heaven with open arms by his mother, Renee Carlos, grandmothers, Dolores Alston and Linda Dickerson and aunt, Deidra Dickerson.   Max leaves to cherish his memories: his father, Matthew Alston; grandfather, Horace Alston, Jr.; siblings, LaQuinn Hines, Montrel Parker, Jordan Carlos and Krystal Alston; great-uncle, Avon (Graylin) Kennel; great-aunt, Sandra Kennel; uncles, Timothy Kennel of  Monroe, NC, Field (Catherine) Kennel of Aiken SC, Wade Alston  and Walter Alston of New York, Horace Alston, III and Brian Alston of the city; aunts, Dorothy (Peter) Rojas of California, Wanda Winston of Memphis, TN, Lisa Beverly and Mary Alston of Wilmington; nieces, Taniya, Aubree, Neveah, Journee, and Jayla; nephews, Thyrn, Sayion, Omari Jayden, Malik, Ja'zaha, Ja'Karri and Julian; fiancé, Cheyanne Morgan and a host of other cousins relatives and friends. Although his time here was fleeting, Max made the most of it despite his health issues.  He had an infectious sense of humor and a smile that would light up the room.    He treasured time with family, especially his nieces and nephews.   Those special family moments are the ones we will miss the most.
