this post is dedicated to my stepfather Alvin of 21 years...
Goodbye Alvin I will miss our mutually caring friendship and the things we talked about over the years.
Alvin was a lawyer, liberal politician and a NYC Marshall. He was a Marine also.
He actually saw Babe Ruth play.
Thanks for being the voice of comfort and there to talk and laugh about life together.

Alvin was my dad's closest friend and every time I spoke to my dad his name would always come up. They were life long buds. My condolences to the Frankenberg family. David Shapiro (Burlington, VT)

I knew Alvin my entire life. He and my father, Howard, grew up together in the Bronx and remained life-long friends. In fact, for many years preceding my father's death in 2002, he and Alvin would speak to each other by phone every single day, sometimes multiple times a day. I remember Alvin telling me shortly after my father's passing how much he was going to miss those phone calls. My deepest condolences to Audrey and Bruce. Alvin was a wonderful person and as good a friend as anyone could hope to have. He will be greatly missed by all that knew him.
