PJ called me and am just in shock. Was just at the gun shop the other day he always gave me a family discount. Alex was the best, big heart. We used to load shotgun shells everything from broke glass to you name it, when he worked at the amoco station. Drag race down Emerson hoping his uncle Dan didn’t bust us. Just was a good friend known him since 1990. Love you Alex see you in heaven when I get there buddy!

Barney Wick says
To the entire Farnworth family:
I was completely shocked when I received word that Alex had passed away. I met him in the gun shop some time ago and, along with a group of friends from Roll-Royce, got to know him better as we visited each time. I’m a retired Marine and when he learned of that, he always made a point of thanking me for my service and ensuring I got the military discount on everything I spent money on. I very much enjoyed talking with and getting to know him. He was a good man with a good heart and he will truly be missed.
Our hearts go out to your entire family, and we pray that God will comfort you all during this difficult time.
Rest in peace, Alex. God bless, my friend.
Vicki Mcgown says
