Resurrected !Thank You Ron.
I was scrolling through the voice options but the unfamiliar Samatha was really
throwing my brain for a twist, making Life as I knew it fade into history.
Alex is back in town !
I float through Time and Space like a treeless leaf.

Hi,
OK, you must be kidding, right? I’m sitting here in front of my 2018
MacBook Pro with Touch Bar, typing you this message, and Alex is doing his
job, faithfully, as he’s done, ever since Mac OS 10.4 Tiger.
It’s true, the initial voice in Ventura is Samantha, but trust me, Alex
is there. You’ll have to go into the VO Utility, Speech and the voices tab,
and re-download him from the Customize Languages table, but he’s there,
ready, willing and able to faithfully execute his assigned duties, as he
always has. :)
Take care,
Ron
P.S.
For those who may not know, not only is Alex still present in Ventura,
but you can use him on your Apple Watch if you can put in watchOS 9, and he’s
also available on Apple TV 4K and beyond.

To someone who has guided me through many difficult adventures, I give
Thanks.
To someone who has worked tirelessly day and night, always available, never
reluctant or irritated with any request I have given.
To Alex, much loved by many a VoiceOver user, frustrating to others and
completely bewildering to some.
rest In Peace as Ventura retires your service.
With no warning or jolly sendoff, Apple has sent you to that big Bin in the
Clouds to enjoy the remainder of your utterings Peacefully.
Me, your nameless alter-ego.
