Please know that you are loved.
May you rest in peace
I have missed my dear friend for a long while now. Al is home with the Lord where he belongs. He was my neighbor for about 15 yrs & was more of a father figure than a friend. He spent all the holidays with my family & me while he lived next door, & he was one of the nicest persons I’ve even met. I was able to help him & take care of him at the beginning of his illness & see first hand how terrible this disease is. He deserves to be where he’s at now, in the arms of Christ our savior, happy & at peace. Love you Al..
May the love of God surround you and your family during this difficult time
May you come to know that the love of God is with you always,
May your memories of Alfred Stab, give you peace, comfort and strength…
Rest now in the arms of our Lord your work on earth is complete.
I thank you for your service and my Freedom. You will not be forgotten.
My thoughts and prayers are with the family of….. US Marine Korean War Veteran, SSgt Alfred Stab, “A True American Hero” God Bless†

Bendy had a smile that you could not forget. And a personality to match.
Telephone “people” are part of a special family. Not everyone got along with everyone but there was a respect that transcended everything.
Bendy was one of a kind. May he now be at peace.

Phone company “people” belonged to a special family like no other, we all didn’t like each other but there was a respect for everyone that made that family special.
Bendy was special! May peace now be his!
