Al and Rose Marie had strong ties and fond memories of Pasadena where they raised their family, ran their business, and were very much involved in the community for more than 30 years. Al served on the Pasadena Community Foundation Board for 10 of those years, from 1985-1995, including two years as chair. His other involvements included volunteering with the Tournament of Roses, serving as president of the Board of Education, Rotary Club of Pasadena, and numerous other civic organizations.
Al passed away in 2018, and Rose Marie passed away in 2025. They are survived by their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. This unrestricted endowment will stand as a legacy for Al’s work with PCF and in the community, supporting PCF’s unrestricted grantmaking in perpetuity.
