Dearest Polly, Mark, Anita, Stanley, Jill, & Christian;
We are so, so sorry and send our heartfelt condolences. We just found out today by Polly's card and letter. We lost my Dad October 9th and my Mother-in-law on December 6th. In between, Mom fell and fractured her femur requiring surgery and rehab. We, as a family, are catching our collective breath. Please know that our thoughts and our prayers are with you. He will be greatly missed. Our love to you all.
Blessings, Michele, Rob, Rochele and Mikal Schalk, Dena Mikal, and Alan and Maureen Mikal.

Aunt Polly, Cousins and Grand children. Please know that my prayers and thoughts are with you.
Uncle Al was truely a great man. His personal qualities are too many to mention however his kindness, understanding,and consideration towards others is most remembered.
When I think of uncle Al I am reminded of;
Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury,pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen

Mr. Alexander,
Sir, I didn't know you but I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army Air Forces during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
