Please accept my deepest sympathies.

May God give your family strength in such a difficult time. We all know he is in the hands of our Heavenly Father. I remember Mr Alford from Kimball. Such an honorable person who influenced many lives. I know he will be genuinely missed.

Mr. Alford was a good geometry teacher and a good guy.

My dear sweet Mr. Alford, you are one of my best memories of Kimball. Besides being my bookkeeping teacher, I had you for Drivers Ed. I cannot tell you what a profound effect you had on my life. I had the honor of meeting both your wife and your daughter. What a wonderful family you had. I'll miss running into you randomly before you moved to Sulfur Springs. You were loved by many and respected by fellow teachers, students, friends and family. RIP. ?

I was in his bookkeeping class at Kimball HS. Very nice man rest in pease Mr. Alford.

Mr. Alford taught me Bookkeeping at Kimball and was a kind, good man. My prayers are with the family at your time of great loss.

Mr. Alford, you had a profound influence on the direction of my life and I am forever grateful. RIP sweet man. My sincere condolences to you, Nancy, and the rest of your family.

The family is in my prayers as you grieve this loss. Mr. Alford was a wonderful man that I remember from church. Never had him as a teacher, though.

Mr. Alford was one of the few teachers I remember well and fondly from Kimball in the late 60's.
