The last two times we were in Bismarck, We spent time with Uncle Alex. We had a great conversion at Uncle Phil’s and Aunt Cecilia’s 60th wedding anniversary. He will be truly be missed, he defiantly was and is a great Uncle.

Sorry for your loss!
Alex was our cousin but the special person that he was, we called him uncle Alex. Alex, Mary and their family were some of our closest friends when we moved to Bismarck in 1965. Thank you for being a great “Uncle” and friend to our family.
