A life spent helping others cut short
CRANBERRY TWP — Aleksander Teimouri didn't just talk about living a life of giving and selflessness, he walked the walk.
His mother, Christina Teimouri, said Aleksander — or Alek — spent his days looking for ways to help people, donating his time and energy so that others could prosper.
Alek Teimouri, 22, was struck by a vehicle late Wednesday night on Rochester Road in Cranberry Township by a man police said was drunk at the time. Though he remains on life support, Alek Teimouri was brain dead as soon as he hit the pavement, cutting short a life that his mother believes should serve as an example.
“He walked the walk — he lived the best example of a life,” she said Thursday. “He was so kind, so generous. He picked people up. He was simply amazing.”
She also said Alek Teimouri will have a chance to continue his mission of helping others one last time. An organ donor, he remains on life support until doctors can find the perfect match for his organs.
“He was such a giving person, even in death,” Christina Teimouri said. “He’s going to help so many families.”
