SICANE. Francis Alexander, taken so suddenly and unexpectedly from us on Sunday, September 5, aged 78. Having celebrated 57 years of marriage, a quiet private but community spirited man, dedicated Church Warden, more recently spending time with patients in the B.R.I. after his own hip replacement 17 years ago. Lexie to his close friends and family, will be sadly missed and most remembered for his selfless warm natured attitude to life. His character will be the legacy for others to follow.
