My condolences to Alf's family upon his passing. I was a transit colleague of Alf's over the past 15 - 20 years. I was impressed with his thoughtfulness in our debates at the Canadian Urban Transit Association and his willingness to contribute and build transit right across Canada. Alf will be missed.

I first met Alf in 2014 when I joined CUTA and our Fall conference was in Niagara Falls. He welcomed me right away and introduced me to all the people that he knew , which were many. He was a supporter of people and a champion of his community. I could tell that those who knew him respected him.
When he told me that he was retiring, I asked him what we'd do without him and told him that we'd find a way to keep him involved in transit. I wish that I had known that he was not well. I will miss him.

I had the distinct pleasure of working with Alfred at the City of Welland for just over two years. I am the Purchasing and Fleet Manager for the City.
Alfred and I did not work in the same office, but when we did work together, I liked him instantly, as he always saw the humorous side of things.
Alfred was a professional who accomplished great things with his colleagues. An example was helping to secure funding from upper tier government which helped make some much needed upgrades.
A story to share, if I may:
Alfred and I needed to secure taxi cab service for some of the residents of Welland to act as a compliment to Transit. This company later became a challenge as they were about as reliable as a broken watch.
Alfred and I had a meeting at this provider's location. The office area looked a bit like the TV show Taxi, us waiting for Louis to walk by.
Alfred and I were seated at a "table" which served a previous purpose as a reel that held electrical cable. We were discussing with the owner a rate that would be appropriate to charge the City for the taxi service, it went something like this:
Adam: So, can you provide us with a flat rate that would be fair to the City, yet incentive enough for you to provide reliable service to the residents?
Taxi Guy: $10?
Adam: That's not really a lot to pay your staff and cover your costs.
Alfred: What Adam is trying to say, is we want you to be sure to cover your costs, providing reliable service is top priority for our ridership.
Taxi Guy:$12?
Adam: Keep in mind you may have to drive across town, like far side of town!
Alfred: Do you need some time to think about this? Put some thought in, and get back to us?
Taxi Guy: $13?
Alfred (turning to me) I think we are done here...
Alfred would call me on Monday's and we would discuss how the Taxi cab service worked out over the previous weekend, or more likely, how it didn't work out.
The day Alfred retired, over cake and coffee I promised him this would be sorted out! I was hoping to do so before he retired, he and I joked it would be his Swan Song, but options at the time were limited. In the end it did get sorted out, and everything is working out well!
We did it, Alfred!
We will miss you friend. Your professionalism, love for your family and love for your work was apparent in all you did. You were one of the good ones.

Mariette and family... I am shocked and deeply saddened to hear of the passing of 'Alfred'... 'Alfie'... 'Stocky'. He worked so hard for so long and when it was his time to relax... it's just awful. He surely will be missed by all and his Transit friends at Welland will miss his youthful enthusiasm and infectious laugh.
My condolences to all the family members on this tremendous loss,
