Please accept my deepest condolences on the passing of Alfred. He was my step-dad for many years during his marriage to my mother Gwen. I'll always remember his great smile & kind nature. He was such a sweet man. I have very fond memories of snowmobiling up North near his brother's in Wisconsin. Wish I could be there to celebrate his life as he made a positive impact on mine. Love you Alfred.
