  • Sorry to hear of Alfs passing, spent many happy times at their Cottage on Pinawa Bay, summer and winter, but the winters I will remember most. Snowmobiling with them and all our other friends in the late 70s and early 80s will always be a great memory of ours, especially New Year's Eve. Alf and Alice were great people, their door was always open to friends and family. Bob & Kathy Ezinicki - Posted by: Bob & Kathy Ezinicki (Friend) on: Aug 27, 2016
