Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryALEXANDER (ALEX) MARK YALOWSKY Peacefully after a short illness, Alex passed away on Friday, December 19, 2014, at the age of 90 years with his beloved wife at his side. Besides his wife Sonya, Alex will be lovingly remembered by his son, Neil (Diane); daughter, Andrea (David); grandchildren, Michael, Richard, Tiffany; and sister-in-law, Lillian. He was predeceased by his father, William; mother, Anna; sister, Mary and brother, Roy. Dad managed L.H. and B. Levi Bros. wholesale jewellers from his early 20s until he retired at the age of 65. He loved his job and the many friends he made through work. Our Dad was a huge sports enthusiast. He loved watching hockey, football, baseball, and curling but his passion was golf. He played the game expertly well into his 80s until he could no longer walk and earned the title "Ace" from those who played alongside him. Dad often said he had a very happy life. He was devoted and dedicated to his wife of 65 years, his children and grandchildren. He enjoyed the summers he spent with his family at Sunset Beach and later at Gimli. He will be sadly missed, but forever in our hearts. A private family memorial will be held at a later date. The family extends special thanks to the staff at the Victoria General Hospital (4 South).

My deepest condolences to Sonya and her family on the loss of Alex. What a guy! My first and only job in Winnipeg was at Levi Bros. I was there for nine years, until I was married and moved to Toronto shortly after. I loved the camaraderie and the family spirit there. I remember Joan ziyone, Ken Micklash and of course, Alex, Lewis and Roy. Alex and Sonya, Lewis and Vera and Ken were all at my engagement party and wedding in June of 1967. Alex was so proud of his family but I'm sure you know that! Keep strong, all of you, and know that Alex was a man of integrity, but then you know that, too. - Posted by: Sandra (Dolberg) Kuttas (Old friend and colleague) on: Jan 17, 2015

My deepest condolences to the family. I worked with Alex at Levi Bros. for many years. Alex taught me a lot about business and money especially buying RRSP. He gave me alot of sound advice, which I really appreciated. I enjoyed listening to his golf stories even though I didn't golf at the time. After my son was born we would go back and visit Alex and my son still remembers those times. Truly the end of an era with Alex, Roy and Lewis now gone. - Posted by: Judy McEwen () on: Dec 28, 2014
