2 CONT ***** October 2, 1981 ***** Dear Friends, I hope you will forgive me for
not writing my individual notes to each of you this years, but some of the news
I have to tell you about is sad, and it would be difficult for me to write it
over and over
2 CONC . My father passed away suddenly of a heart attack on October 2, 1981
and this has left a substantial void in all our lives. for some of you who did
know him, you would have liked to. Of those of you who did, you will know just
what I mean.
2 CONT
2 CONT Elwin was quite an individual, he had a great sense of humor. We called
his jokes "Al's tales" because he often forgot the punch line, but had a great
time trying to make one up. He loved to don a frillly hat or funny glasses with
fake nose an
2 CONC d walk in a room to sit down nonchalantly to see how I long people took
to notice. I own my own sense of humor and interest in music to my father. He
taught me to play the piano and encouraged me to sing at an early age. He
tickled the ivorie
2 CONC s for hour because he had a wonderful talent of playing by ear.
Recently, he was learning to play the organ, and he sang in men's barbershop
singing organizations for years.
2 CONT
2 CONT My father was meticulous in all he did, special in his work, the Air
Force for 21 years, civil service for 12 years and H & R Block for the last few
years. He had received many government awards for outstanding leadership. He
also took his hom
2 CONC e responsibilities seriously, spending hours designing and planting
flower beds or putting up hundreds of Christmas lights. He was the model
husband. He got up every morning and served my mother hot tea in bed. After
retirement he made his brea
2 CONC kfast for them on their patio. My mother was alway his English queen
and he was ever her adoring knight. He was loving father, always supportive,
encouraging, protective, and appreciative. He was a great listener and
interesting conversationa
2 CONC list. He was a super grandfather. He like being called "Uncle Al"
rather than Grandpa. He enjoyed jogging with Todd and playing the piano with
Shelly. He will be missed.
