To Alphonse’s family:
My parents were good friends with Alphonse and the Fekete family. I remember the Fekete parents, and of course, knew Alex along with Lita. I remember all the dogs that Mr. Fekete, Sr. had, dogs like Poobelly and Snowball. He used to call me “Csopike” (Hungarian for “droplet”). I also remember Booboo the bear. There were so many animals around the Fekete farm and I have many wonderful memories of the family and their farm.
I knew Alphonse all my life and am so sorry to hear that he has passed away. He was the most patient person I ever knew and I don’t think I ever saw him angry or upset. He was so good to our parents, especially Dad, and often helped them out when a hand was needed. I know he really enjoyed Mom’s Hungarian cooking and baking and thought the world of her.
I’ll always remember Alphonse on the farm, working hard with the cattle, but always having time for visitors whenever they arrived. How he loved to tell a good story, and always had a twinkle in his eyes!
Alphonse was a pallbearer for both our parents, and now that he is gone, it feels like another piece of our history is gone as well.
I’m so sorry I can’t attend the funeral, but to Alphonse’s family, please know that I am thinking of you and wish to express my deepest condolences on the loss of this humble, kind and wonderful family member. I know he will be dearly missed by his family, as well as the community of Spiritwood and surrounding area.
