It is always tough to lose a classmate. Alvin has been a regular at of the Albemarle High School Class of 1958.reunions. Alvin was never one to make a not of noise, very serious and to the point. We played with many of us class of 1958 on the Albemarle High School Patriot football team. He was a valuable on the line on the first under defeated team in 1957..
