    Sasha is a nickname for Alexandra. It's of Russian origin.

    Very sad, unexpected news. She definitely followed the Rockets and seemed to be a Parsons fan.

    I know it's way to early to start thinking about the games, but how do you think the organization will commemorate her?

    I am sorry for her and the entire McHale family.

    Can't imagine how they are feeling right now.

    Terrible news! :( Coach McHale and his family are in my thoughts.

    One of her tweets, brought tears to my eyes.
    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>Laugh as much as you breath and love as long as you live.</p>&mdash; Sasha McHale (@SashaMcHale) <a href="https://twitter.com/SashaMcHale/status/223537888011354112" data-datetime="2012-07-12T22:02:40+00:00">July 12, 2012</a></blockquote>
    <script src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
    May Sasha rest in peace.
