December 15, 1917 — October 22, 2007
Alexander S. Lokay, “Pop”, 89, a lifelong resident of Perkasie, passed away Monday, October 22, in his step-daughter’s home in Holland, PA after a brief illness. He was the loving husband of Victoria (Senkow) Lokay for 22 years and the late Irma (Krastel) Lokay.
Born in Philadelphia, he was a son of the late John and Agnes (Tutka) Lokay.
Mr. Lokay was a US Army veteran, having served during World War II.
He had been employed for 10 years as a floor molder in a North Penn foundry and had also worked 30 years for his brother Louis with Lokay Excavating.
He had been a member of the Keelersville Club, Perkasie.
Mr. Lokay enjoyed working around his property, especially in his garage where he loved to build projects. Blessed with a mechanical mind, he could build anything. If he did not have it, he built it. A licensed pilot, he built and flew his own ultra-light airplane and gyrocopter. He also liked to sit on his porch and play his accordion.
