Alvin lived in Crofton for the last 16 years and loved the small little communitty.

He was a very private, quiet, gentle man that liked to keep it simple, loved all animals and would give them his full attention. Passing his time listening to music and playing his guitar. Also watching his car shows.

Alvin worked as a Moulder and Planner Operator most of his working life.

The family would like to extend it’s sincere thanks to Dr. Roy Gilbert and staff at CDH for there excellent care and to our friends and family members who have made this easier for us.
