Alvin worked at the US Plywood in Algoma for many years, while farming during all that time.  
Alvin and Carol enjoyed going on bus trips to the casinos.  Alvin enjoyed going to all of his son's  tractor pulls, playing cards, going out to eat, farming with his wife and son until he retired from farming, deer hunting, golfing and his earlier years playing softball in the Cherry League in Casco and Algoma.  He played in the Little World Series in Pierre, South Dakota.
