Al ( @almarg ) passed away peacefully yesterday evening, September 14th, 2020.
Margaret, Al's wife, was by his side most of the afternoon.
Both she and Al, as well as Al's family, were deeply touched by the outpouring of respect and appreciation for Al from members who, via written word, shared so very much in the 'Update on Audiogon Member Almarg' thread.
Margaret extends her thanks, gratitude and appreciation to all members. She treasures each and every post.
This is such sad news my condolences to Margaret and thanks to David for his work keeping Margaret and the community connected. Al was a legend here the man everyone turned to for technical advice. He delivered said advice with grace and aplomb. When threads grew contentious he was a voice of reason, sanity, and most of all logic.
I am sure as great as Al was to all of us here he was even more amazing to Margaret family and friends. He will be sorely missed here his passing is a void we can't begin to fill. RIP Al and enjoy fixing the stereo when it goes awry wherever you are now.
So sorry to read the news of his passing. Never had direct contact with Al, just read with interest his responses to others inquiries, when he would respond, I would imagine in my mind, the old E.F.Hutton commercials and people cupping their hand to their ears to make sure we got it all. RIP
