Loewen Announces the Passing of Former President and CEO Al Babiuk

Loewen is deeply saddened to announce the sudden passing of former president and CEO, Al Babiuk. Babiuk's commitment and contribution to Loewen cannot be overstated. He will be greatly missed.

With his outstanding energy and vision, Babiuk was able to lead Loewen with courage and integrity through some of the most challenging times the building industry has ever experienced. His passion for improvement extended deeply into the industry and community with contributions to Window and Door Manufacturers Association, the Business Council of Manitoba, and the Associates of the Asper School of Business.

"Aside from being a strong business leader through some tough times, Al was a trusted business partner, community supporter and genuinely good person of highest integrity. For many of us, he was also a friend. It's difficult to overstate Al's contribution to this company and the people in it," says Clyde Loewen, senior vice president of product and marketing, Loewen.
