Alvin Tate

A true friend indeed!

I am truly sorry for your loss. May you gain comfort by pouring out your heart to God in prayer. He cares for you and wants to support you during this most difficult time.

Alvin, will always be #1 in our hearts and in our memories. Rest in Peace Sergeant Alvin Tate. Darnell and Diane Tate

As a big brother, he was kind, generous, and loved. As a friend he was special. He was all ways Weed to me and then earned the right to be affectionately known as number one. I love you big brother and I miss you so much. You will always be in my mind, my heart and my spirit.

Sleep now and know that your family can never, and will never forget your smile and encouraging words from a man who was always my friend and my big brother. Love you, miss you.

70 years. That is a long time to know a person. I've known this man for he is my oldest brother. As our family started there were seven of us. Now there are only three. At an early age, Alvin was second in charge (Dad was boss). Alvin was a gentle soul but he knew how to command. He used that command to be a loving brother. He and I became a lot closer as time went on. I live in Massachusetts but tried to get to Texas at least once a year to visit. During those visits, we'd laugh, and of...

My friend of 35 years was laid to rest on Nov 8th. Those years were filled with so many laughs; many of which would get us both fired in this ultra PC world we live in today. I loved Alvin like a brother and will miss him dearly. As expected his service was SRO. We all had our thoughts and smiles. His footprints on earth will last generations. To Viv, the kids and his brothers hugs to you; as I too will always remember Alvin.
