Grace and family, Marlene Hanson just called to tell me about Alan?s passing.  I am shocked and saddened because Al had been emailing me and others in June.  Please know my thoughts and prayers are with you. Al was a good friend who will be missed.

Al was a devoted servant to the church and set a great example for others.  He loved his family deeply.
I enjoyed seeing him at most of our concerts and his visits.
Good bye to a great Christian man.

To the Rustan Family,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Al.    I belong to Civil Air Patrol and when I joined many moons ago, Al was my Group 4 Commander and we fondly referred to him as "Grandpa Al".   Some of my fondest memories of Civil Air Patrol is with him.   He had a very distinct voice and I can still hear that when I think of him.   He always had a smile on his face, a great hug and a wonderful man.    I lost touch with him once he left the program but still thought of him from time to time.    May all of your memories comfort you in this difficult time.     Will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers.
Betty Jo Eckhoff, Civil Air Patrol Member.

So sorry to learn of Alan's passing.  As a 1962 graduate of Webb HS, I very much appreciated and enjoyed Alan's periodic emails providing details regarding significant events within the Webb community.  I'm certain many other former Webb residents will miss his willingness to keep us all informed.  May God rest his soul.  
Sincerely, Bill and Ramona Boese

Dear Family Members of Al,
Bruce and I had the pleasure of serving with Al in the Civil Air Patrol for many years.  He was a dedicated member and always met the needs of others before taking care of himself.  He was a quiet man but indeed served C.A.P. well!  Our condolences to the family.  We will remember you in our thoughts and prayers.  Take Care.  Bruce & Lynn

Deepest sympathy to the family of Al.  He will be deeply missed as a spouse, father, and grandfather.  I worked with Al many years at IBM.  Always enjoyed talking with  him on a variety of topics including IBM, Thrivent,  and his so many hobbies.  He was such a congenial person  Since we both retired long ago, I  hadn't seen him for a long time, but was fortunate to see him and have a nice talk with him downtown Rochester just a month ago. 
Deepest sympathy and God Bless,  Bruce
