Alvin J. Potter

Had Alvin for a bus driver for many years. What a great guy.

Your dad was an inspiration me as a young kid that did not always fit in. Because your dad really tried to be a help to whomever needed it. I was able to go to Kent Skill Center while a junior in high school only because your dad offered me a ride on his way to starting his bus driving job at 05:30 in Rockford. This world could use more people like your dad.

Dear Tim And Doug, Your Mom And Dad Were Faithful In Their Walk With Jesus All The Days Of Their Lives. God Bless You And Hug You Tight. We Have So Many Fond Memories Of Your Parents And The Johnson'S Too. We Will Keep You In Our Prayers. Love Betty And Paul Koehn, And Diane Koehn Novak

I thought of Your Dad many times over the Years that I drove for them and what an impression He had on Us students. We were a wild bunch but Your Dad was so Cool and knew how to deal with Us, He knew when...
