Dear Uncle Alvin,
You are an amazing person, the patriarch of our family. You have inspired and taught us to live, love and laugh. You have lived an honorable life full of charity. You have loved your family and friends with all of your being. I will always cherish the fact that you took the time to make each and every person feel special down to the smallest member of our family. And your laugh was contagious and would spread throughout a crowd. You will be greatly missed. We love you.

I'm sitting here watching the curser flash on the screen trying to put into words the flood of thoughts and sorrow that I'm occupied with at the moment. Big Al is a cornerstone in my memories of growing up in Littlestown. I've been around the world and back since I've left home... Mr. Unger is still one of the kindest, funniest, warmest persons I've had the pleasure of knowing.
