Dave's Family...Dave was one of my most favorite co-workers, teacher and friend at Illinois Bell. His smile and warmth, kindness and laughter use to make all of our days go by much faster. This was the saddest of news for me but I know that Dave is all good and making the angels laugh and looking down on all of us wishing us well and wishing you, his family and close friends, strength through heartache. I know I speak for all of his Illinois Bell friends that had the pleasure of working with Dave...He will be missed. Cyndi

I will always think of Dave as the gentle, kind man with a smile that I saw weekly at church. He was quick to say hello and ask how you were, and had such a calm about him that he immediately put you at ease. He was one of those rare people you never heard a bad word about, and his presence and Christian witness will certainly be missed around Christ Lutheran. Rest in peace, Dave.

Dear Alm Family, We were so sad to hear of the loss of Dave. I know Dave through the Mc Cord Gallery as we serve on the board and other committees. Dave was kind, fun loving and just a sweet gentleman. He would bring Werthers Toffee candy to all our meetings to sweeten us up. we grew to expect this treat and he was effectionally called "The Candy Man".I feel lucky to have known him and he will be missed.I'm sure he is sharing his sweetness in heaven. Our prayers are with you all and we are sorry we can not attend Daves service as we are out of town. With Sympathy, Arlene Adams

Dear Johann and members of supporters of Jeremie Children, Church in Jeremie, the District of Jeremie and all our friends have received with great sorrow and sadness the passing of our brother Alm. After which the force is up to us thanking God in the hope of seeing him again in heaven with God. We are all passengers on this earth. We just have to prepare for our departure. My dear Johann, I ask you to take your strength and courage because the separation is not easy although it happens very often. But when we know that we all have to go through this path and we require much courage to return to continue the work of our Lord until our departure. We share with you this painful moment and ask the Lord to guide you. May God be with you! Pastor Isaac

I only knew Dave briefly before I retired from the phone company, but always enjoyed working with him and admired his abilities to 'get the job done'. I KNOW he has many friends from the Illinois Bell days and will be missed by all of them.

Dave Alm was a man of extreme class and caring. He had a way of putting a person at ease during tough situations, and was always quick with a laugh and a kind word. Our church will miss his leadership, friendship, and worship. Peace.

We extend our deepest sympathy to the family of Dave Alm. It was always a pleasure to work with Dave at the McCord Cultural Center. His enthusiasm and attention to detail contributed to the success of the projects he undertook. We especially appreciated his efforts during our current Civil War exhibit. It is still difficult to process the fact that he is no longer with us. Dave will be missed so much. Norm and Stella Solliday

Dave was one of the "good" people. He cared a lot about others. I respected him as President of the Palos Orland Conservation Committee where he worked on beautification projects for the schools, recycling projects for the village, historical tributes to the railroads, and publishing of the Newsletter. He will be missed but not forgotten as he has left us with much.

To the family and friends of Dave, our condolences and deepest sympathy. He was a member of our Amateur Radio community. We went to Ham Radio gatherings together and I always enjoyed our conversations covering numerous subjects. He was always willing to share his knowledge and experiences, which were most interesting. He purchased a radio from me to use on his travels all over the world. I always looked forward to hearing where the radio had traveled! Our prayers go out to the Alm family. Steve and Peggy Peters
