Uncle Al was always the life of the party and rarely missed a dance until life took a toll on his body.  Even then he was full of stories about his very full life and held the attention of everyone that was lucky enough to be within earshot, young and old. We will all miss him.

So many memories from childhood to adulthood are flooding back to me, ranging from Grandparents Alex/Agnes Dalske farm as a child to his 80th birthday celebration and beyond. Uncle Al will be dearly missed.   Deepest sympathy to the entire family. Memory eternal. 

Amazing son, father, husband,  brother, uncle and so many things to friends and family. Many memories. Love and prayers to my cousins and their families. WE share in your sadness.

Uncle Al was such an amazing man and lived a life worthy of a best selling novel. He had wisdom that was often shared without prompting. A man that danced until the music stopped. Leaving a legacy of beautiful children, grandchildren and great-grands. He will forever in my heart. Godspeed 

I met Al when he worked for a company that provided vacuum-molded plastics sometime in the late 1970's when I was a GenSet Engineer at Onan Corp in Fridley.  He went beyond expectations to assist us with the project, but the project was not viable--but not because of his talents, it was product related.  Al was a great guy, with a lot of customer-focus and engagement.

Mark, I see that "the chip falls not far from the tree", and you are carrying on your father's legacy at Cummins Power Gen.  You and your family are in our thoughts and prayer as you mourn his passing.
