KUFTA, Alexander M. - passed away peacefully at Ste. Anne’s Veteran’s Hospital, Ste. Anne de Bellevue QC on Thursday, September 20th, 2018, at the age of 102. Alex now joins his loving and devoted wife, Lena (nee Mackie) of 72 years, on the heavenly dance floor. He will be forever missed by his four children, David (Susie Rousseau) of Kirkland, Kenneth (Connie Trew) of Vancouver, BC, Joyce (Carl Good) of Newcastle, ON, and Richard (Aileen Smiley) of Beaconsfield. He touched the lives of each of his 9 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren. He was lifetime Montrealer, a proud veteran of WWII (RCAF) and a retired career employee of Dominion Stores in real estate.
