Alexander Sarantos

Alexander Sarantos (age 56) was a resident of Beulah, Michigan, whose life was rooted in the small-town rhythms of Benzie County. Public records and local reporting identify him as living on Cinder Road in the Beulah area; he kept close ties to his neighborhood and was known locally by friends who sometimes checked on one another in the tight-knit community.

While many private details of Alexander’s life — early years, family relationships, work, and hobbies — are not available in the public record, the facts that are documented point to a man who lived among neighbors who cared enough to look after him. He was 56 when he died on April 11, 2020, and his death affected people in a community where personal connections matter and where neighbors watch out for one another.

Alexander’s passing prompted a lengthy legal process that concluded with a conviction in 2021; that legal outcome is part of the public record, but it does not define the whole of who he was. The limited public details make it difficult to paint a complete portrait, yet even brief public references show a real person with a place in a community — a neighbor whose life and loss were felt by those around him.

Because no family-published obituary or funeral-home notice matching Alexander’s name and the exact April 11, 2020 date was located in the sources searched, this remembrance focuses on the dignity of his life as recorded publicly: a person who lived in Beulah, whose presence mattered to people nearby, and whose memory endures among those who knew him. If family members or friends wish to provide additional details or a formal obituary, those remembrances would allow a more complete, personalized tribute to Alexander’s life and legacy.
