Diane, Allan, Michelle,
You know how much in awe I've always been of your father as a quiet, kind and above all skilled man. My family have been carpenters since 1870, and I always felt bad that I was a girl and not a carpenter and broke the 4 generation tradition----so your did was a marvel and a mysterious magician to me!! He will be missed.
I know you'll agree he had a good, happy, long life. God Bless Him and All of You.

Alan, Diane and the entire Alt Family: I knew your mother, Esther, from the 1930's in Gridley, IL. I just learned through the Peoria newspaper the passing of your dad. That's something--100 years.
You all have been in my thoughts and prayers.
