I am sorry to hear of his death. I had a very good contact with Alex back in nineties and enjoyed visiting him in the London area.

Regards,

John Manrho.

I knew Alex since around 1967 or 1968,we have been in contact all these years, even after I returned to Canada so many years ago. Alex was a wealth of Aviation knowledge pertaining to the Eastern front and the Luftwaffe of whom he was a member. I was saddened to accidently stumble on this obituary on the internet, I only remarked this week to my wife, Alex's Christmas card (he never missed sending it all these years) should arrive any day. To his friends and son and daughter my deepest sympathy, a long term friend very much missed....Bob Morritt in Ontario, Canada.
