Member Almarg passed away last night


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.

I just found out a week ago that my dear friend Al has crossed over and I am devastated. 
From my first day as an electrical engineer I met Al and we became fast friends. Soon after, Margaret and Al came to dinner at our home and it was his first taste of high-end audio. We continued our families friendship for over 37 years until I moved to Florida and lost touch. 
There are no words that I can use to describe my relationship with Al except to be soft spoken, always grateful, absolutely brilliant on any subject that he had knowledge of and the truest of gentleman and devoted husband to Margaret.

Many of you may not know that Al was an excellent cook, wine enthusiast, long distance runner and massive collector of radios big and small. He and Margaret loved music deeply and passionately. And, judging by the outpouring of condolences, you sensed his essence as well.


Dearest Margaret,

My wish for you is that you have or will celebrate Al’s life for all of the wonderful things he did and an incredibly special man he especially to you. You were an unbelievable couple in the truest sense of the meaning.

love,
Neil
