The next chapter unfolded in Canada, where, in October 1976, Alfred and Patsy, inspired by the footsteps of friends and family, made their new home. At A.G. Simpson's Scarborough plant, Alfred's dedication shone as a Shipper/Forklift Operator for 30 years, contributing to the transportation of car parts manufactured in the factory. His commitment culminated in a well-deserved retirement from A.G. Simpson in February 2006.

Alfred, known for his amiable nature, effortlessly forged enduring friendships wherever life took him. His warmth, tenderness, love, and selflessness defined him. An easygoing spirit, he navigated life without complaint, leaving a lasting impact on those fortunate enough to know him.
