Obituary For Alexander Braumandl

Alexander Karl Braumandl, resident of Grande Prairie, passed away on Thursday, May 18, 2017, at Red Willow Falls, Rio Grande at the age of 30 years.

Alex was born and raised in Nelson BC. After graduation he moved to find work in Fort St. John, and joined his brother. Through childhood, Max and Alex were always close and often worked and shared a place together. Up until the time of his death, Alex worked out of Ft. St. John and sometimes relocated to Grande Prairie for work.

Alex loved outdoors activities - fishing, backcountry skiing, and snowmobiling. He had a great sense of humour and loved to cheer up co-workers on tough workdays. He was a pro at picking up an accent, mannerisms and other identifying quirks of his intended targets. He started this practice very young by calling his mother at work and posing as disgruntled clients.

He will be very sadly missed by his mother Virginia Stanford; father Tom Braumandl; brothers: Max and Kai Braumandl; girlfriend Emily Wark; great-grandmother Louisa Stanford; as well as aunties, cousins, niece and nephews, and many friends in Nelson, Fort St. John, and Grande Prairie.

Celebration of Life ceremonies will be announced at a later date in both Fort St. John and Nelson.

Alex has left us so young. We will miss him hugely.

So sad to hear the news, I hadn't seen Alex since I moved away from Fort St. John 10 years ago but have great memories living and working along side him. Was a good friend to me and I feel blessed to have known him.
