Syed was an employee at SaskPower’s Boundary Dam Power Station. He and his family lived in Estevan and his children went to school here, and they moved to Regina for the start of the 2020-21 school year. He would carpool to Estevan for work at Boundary Dam, and returned to Regina during his days off. His co-workers at Boundary Dam created a GoFundMe campaign for him in early April after he was hospitalized. It had an early goal of $5,000, but the support easily surpassed that amount, and the campaign continued. After his death, it shifted from a fundraiser to support his medical costs to one that would assist his wife and their three young children.

As of Monday evening, it has raised more than $84,000, with a goal of $100,000. There have been nearly 1,000 donors. Benning wrote Sunday night that Syed had succumbed to the COVID-19 virus that afternoon. He leaves behind his wife and three young children. The funeral/burial was held April 26 at the Riverside Memorial Park cemetery in Regina. Benning wrote that he would be raising the goal of the GoFundMe to continue supporting Syed’s family and newborn daughter. “Please continue to keep them in your prayers through this difficult time and thank you for all the support thus far,” Benning wrote. Benning wrote on April 22 that Misbah gave birth to a beautiful baby girl the previous day. By all accounts, Misbah herself and the baby are doing very well.
REGINA A young father in Regina died from COVID-19 on Sunday, leaving behind his wife and three young children. His youngest daughter was born just days before his death. Ali Syed and his then-pregnant wife, Misbah, were admitted to the hospital with severe COVID-19 symptoms at the end of March. He was later admitted to ICU. Syed was employed by SaskPower, and worked at the Boundary Dam Power Station in Estevan. “He had work ethics and he was a great person to have on our team. He really, really was soft hearted, kind. He had lots of kindness, really touched many people within our community,” Kevin Guillemin director of power production at Boundary Damn said. “Everybody hoped for a different outcome, everybody hoped for Ali to recover from this, but now of course the money raised can definitely go to help Ali’s family.”
Members of U.S.
Pacific Air Forces and Japan Air Self-Defense Force visited the 552nd Air Control Networks Squadron to build cyber-defense capacity, April 4-10.
The 552nd ACNS is the Air Force lead Mission Defense Team for tactical command and control systems, including the
Control and Reporting Centers. They are the only MDT in the Air Force to perform missions inside the skin of an aircraft, defending against adversaries in cyberspace.
“The knowledge and experience gained by visiting the 552nd ACNS will help shape the overall cyber defense strategy for the Japanese Weapon Systems,” said U.S. Air Force Capt. Ali Syed, Pacific Air Forces Cyber Defense and Mission Assurance deputy chief. “At PACAF we will incorporate the knowledge gained into our command’s MDT force array and employment concepts as we execute our staff mission to organize, train, and equip.”
