His wife of 50 years, Alice, was at his side. With his family, Pol immigrated to Winnipeg in 1973. With his quiet, unassuming nature, Pol ensured the best education for his five children and worked for 25 years at the Federal Pioneer Electric Company. He was also an active member of St. Mary's Cathedral and the Mabuhay Serenaders. Pol will be greatly missed by Alice and their children Maria (a.k.a. Lulu), Tom (Gregory), Christine (Robert), Paul (Catherine), and Alec (Danielle); his grandchildren Lauren and Ella Garcia and Renzy Robles; his brother-in-law Tomas Yudai and family; his son-in-law, Tony Garcia, and his only niece, Maria-Luisa (Lito) Adolfo. A memorial service will be held on Saturday, December 10 at 10:00 a.m., at St. Mary's Cathedral, 353 St. Mary Avenue.
