Uncle Alfred was somewhat of a character. Rumor has it that a young woman broke his heart and that is why he never married. In his will he left burial plots to his many nieces and nephews. It is due to his will that we learned his sister Bertha's married name and her sons name. He owned a lot of jewelry and wore silk pajamas. He also suffered from depression.
He died at the age of 63 of encephalomalacia of the left cerebral hemisphere extensive and cerebral atherosclerosis, [6]and is buried in the Whitemarsh Memorial Park, Ambler, Montgomery, Pennsylvania, United States of America[7]
