I worked with Al at Hartzog Aviation. He was a good friend. Al would tell me stories of his motorcycle adventures with his best friend nicknamed "Mortician ". My sincere condolences to his family in their loss of a "good" man, husband, father, and friend.

Alvin was the best neighbor my family has ever had. AJ and Mary were our next door neighbors for 20 years.
Without asking, he would plow the snow with his tractor and cut my grass. Mary would knit hat's and gloves for my kids. We miss them both.

He was always a character. Always an interesting meeting when ever we crossed paths. He will be missed.
