Ubald Trnkoczy Saskal, 88, died peacefully on April 3, 2024 in Guilford, Connecticut. Ubald was born in what was then Yugoslavia, to father Dalibor and mother Kornelia Trnkoczy.

He was raised in Austria in the austere postwar years, he eventually found his way to Canada as a young man. There, he was an amateur sports car racer; even after moving on from the hobby, he never lost his taste for the road and time spent behind the wheel. He spent those hours in his own diesel cars and the semi trucks he ordered to his meticulous specifications to fuel his career as an independent trucker. He then spent his last four decades in Branford, Connecticut.

He is survived by children Richard, Laura and Karen; three grandchildren; sister Inge of Vienna, Austria, and his nephew, Thomas. He was preceded in death by his brother Peter.

There are currently no services planned however, Ubald's ashes will be scattered at places that were important to him.
