This memorial website was created in loving memory of my father, Alvin Lewis Marder who was born in New York on December 18, 1945 and passed away on December 31, 1985 at the age of 40. Alvin fought a hard fight with kidney disease and was one of the first people in the country to receive a donated organ. My dad loved trivia, was awesome at math and had a brilliant mind. He shared with me his love of reading, music, and athletic activities. Most importantly to this day, I remember how much my dad loved me and I miss him always. I would give anything to have one more moment with him, just see him one more time. I have accepted the fact that his untimely death has created a hole in my heart that can never be filled. I have so many wonderful memories of my beloved father; driving in his convertible and him telling me “music maestro” to turn on the radio, I remember how he used to teach me math, his love for music and pop culture as well as his generosity towards me always. Most of all I remember how much I was adored, loved and wanted by my father. The only comfort I have is that he is no longer suffering. I miss having my dad in my life. I hate the fact that he was gypped out of a long life and didn’t get to see me grow up; though I hope he is watching over me and keeping me safe. Daddy you will never be forgotten. The eight years of my life that you were here on earth were the best years, I will always cherish your memory and as long as I am alive, I will see to it that you are not forgotten. Please continue watching over everyone and keeping them well. I miss you and mourn for you more than words can describe, not a day goes by that you are not in my thoughts. Please feel free to look around this site and see who Alvin was, someone who will never be forgotten. It is my wish to keep his memory alive, which I hope to accomplish with this website.
