ALVIN WERNER
Birth Jan. 10, 1966 – Steinbach, MB
Death Sept. 30, 2020 – Cochrane, AB
Alvin Werner, much loved husband, father, brother and friend, passed away suddenly in the early evening of Wednesday, Sept. 30, 2020, in Cochrane, AB, at the age of 54.
Alvin’s life was built around his love of family, friendships, outdoor adventure, aviation, and travel. His passion for photography, WWII history and modelling are familiar to everyone who got to know him. He worked hard, played hard and lived each day to the fullest. He had a boundless curiosity and loved to learn, enjoying conversations and sharing new ideas with friends. Alvin was steadfast, loyal and generous; a straight-shooter with a mischievous sense of humour.
He is survived by his wife Lise, his daughters Sonja and Kaysa, his brothers Hans, Willie, Gerhard, and sisters Marie, Alvina and Sieglinde.
A celebration of Alvin’s life will be live-streamed at 10:30 a.m. on Friday, Oct. 9 at the following: https://tv.cochranealliance.com/en/c/celebrating-the-life-of-alvin-werner.2674
