One of two brothers who donated funds to almost completely rebuild the College in the 1930s.
Much has been written about the brothers, their Aspro Empire and extraordinary philanthropy.
The new school was about to be opened by the Governor when Alfred died unexpected a few days before, so the Opening was delayed by a week. The corner garden facing St Kilda Road was laid as a memorial to him, and there is a window in his memory in the Chapel at St Kilda Road.
