Linda and Donald, sorry to hear about the passing of your father. During a recent trip back to Regina, we had the opportunity for a visit at Holy Rosary after Palm Sunday service. Alex talked about his cat. Our prayers are with you.

We will always remember our annual barbeques at the farm in Manitoba. It was an event that Brad and I looked forward to each year. As we drive by the farm we will remember your mom and dad with fond memories.

I worked at Silverwood as a student for a few summers in the early 70's and Alex was there to help me any time I had problems with the creamer filling machine. He was a great mechanic and very patient and methodical. To this day I often think of Alex's patient and thoughtful approach when I am trying to fix something! Condolences to the family.

I was a truck mechanic with Silverwood dairies in the early 70's and I got to know him quite well and now he is looking down on us that use to work there and now he joins two outher of my friends that have passed at my all time favorite dairy that I worked in, on the bottom of our pay stubs it said "IT IS A GOOD PLACE TO WORK".
Alex joins Drumand{Biff] Crouch and Walter Bulmer.I visit these guys in our Masonic Plot in Riverside quite frequintly.
R.I.P. Alex you deserve a good rest.

We have fond memories of Mr. & Mrs. Ryback as the special people on our block in the Cathedral. From the chats on the front street, to gardening and of course the treats of pails of ice-cream that were shared. We are happy to have known both of them. They were good and caring people. The epitome of community. Our prayers are with the family.
