Not sure what to say?

On the anniversary of your death, I fondly remember the years of great times with Club 24; Baylor - Michigan football games; trips to Windsor for horse racing. I also fondly recall cruises - and how you and John D. found Muriel and me when we got lost in Barbados. I'll always remember the political discussions between you and Bill Wood. You were on opposite sides of politics, yet the conversations were models of mutual respect and civility. We need both qualities today. To my knowledge,...

We miss both Muriel and Albert - I remember Muriel called him "Albert." We shared many great adventures in Club 24 and on Caribbean cruises. Club 24 parties fill a book. The most outstanding cruise memory: Muriel and I got lost in Barbados. John D. and Al tracked us down. We're blessed that our memories are a treasure trove. I pray that the Lord will comfort you as only He can.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

I worked with Al at his firm for 2-3 years as a secretarial assistant.
Must say he was always amusing and interesting. Very sorry to hear of his passing and want the family to know that he will be missed and that I am thinking of them.

To the entire family of albert Dilley, we the members of the American Legion Post 258 send our most heartfelt condolences to you as you mourn together for the loss of Albert. All of you family will be in our thoughts and prayers. Sincerely, Robert Schneckenberger Chaplain of post 258

To the great Dilley family my deepest condolences. I knew Don and Al. Great personalities. To my sweet and dear friend Fred, may your father R.I.P

He is from a great family of high achievement lawyers and his name carries respect in our community.

My sincere condolences to the Dilley family. I worked at the Peninsula Club, years ago and had the pleasure of meeting and serving him and his son. Sending prayers to you all.

Dear Fred, Mary, Marcia, and Nancy, Deepest condolences on the loss of your dad. His was certainly a life well lived. What immense joy he (and your mom) brought to my life as a kid! Oh, the many hours I spent at your house and in that V-tail Beechcraft Bonanza! How generous of him to share that experience with not only you, but also a neighbor kid. As accomplished a professional as he was, I remember what a devoted family man he was. I...
