I could write a book on memories of pop pop.I will try to keep this short as I can. He would jump and do anything for anyone many times I was at their house the phone would ring and he'd be off to help someone.Him and Lorraine were and still are loved by many.My thoughts and prayers go out to the whole family. God has received a wonderful angel when Alfred went home. Sorry for your loss Mrs.Lorraine. Hugs and love .
