David Alexander “Alex” Booth, a beloved partner, bonus father, musician, and friend, passed away unexpectedly on May 1, 2025, at the age of 42. His sudden departure has left a profound void in the lives of all who knew and loved him.
Alex is deeply mourned by his devoted partner, Amy Kincaid, and the children he lovingly embraced as his own—Hunter and Caitlyn Taylor. His circle of family and friends, both near and far, will remember him not only for his remarkable talent but for the unwavering kindness and genuine warmth that radiated from his presence.
Born and raised with a soul wired for rhythm and creativity, Alex found his lifelong passion in music. He was a gifted drummer whose energy, timing, and feel brought songs to life. Whether performing in small venues, jamming with friends, or simply tapping out rhythms at the dinner table, music was his heartbeat.
In recent years, Alex experienced a spiritual renewal that guided him toward a deeper purpose. He began playing worship music, using his talent to uplift others and connect to something greater than himself. This phase of his journey brought him a profound sense of peace and belonging, and his contributions to worship settings were both moving and memorable.
To honor Alex’s life and the legacy he leaves behind, a memorial service will be held at Thrive Church in Richmond on May 30, 2025. Friends, family, and community members are invited to gather, reflect, and celebrate the man who brought rhythm, laughter, and love to every part of his life.
Though Alex’s life was tragically cut short, those who knew him will carry forward the beat of his spirit—the joy he found in music, the love he gave so freely, and the light he brought into every room. His memory will continue to echo through the lives of the people he touched.
Rest in rhythm, Alex. You will always be remembered, always be loved, and never be forgotten.
