It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Alex on January 24, 2016 at the age of 83. Alex was surrounded by the love of his family and will be dearly missed by his wife of 61 years Barbara, sons Alan (Debbie), Brian (Trish), daughter Barbi (Russ), 9 grandchildren, 13 great- grandchildren and his sister Lena West. A Celebration of Life for the family will be held at a later date.
