Rob Scott wrote a sympathy message

“I was so sorry to find this. We were talking about Al today. He was the best man at my mom and dad's wedding 50 years ago in Fennimore. That is where the picture is from. My father, Jim Knapp, always spoke highly of him. Wishing you all the best.”

Ronald Lietha wrote a sympathy message

“My Condolence's go out to Al's Family. I knew Al's father very well, as he worked on many of my dealership, "Buffalo City Auto Sales", cars, at Fountain City, for me, at his garage. I sold my garage in 1977 at Buffalo City to Al, right after he got discharged from the Service, & I think, I remember that he told me that he flew helicopters during the Vietnam War. Thanks for your Service Al & also your service to the Ambulance Service in Coch Rest at Peace, Al. Ronald Lietha Tomahawk, Wisconsin”

Trav Eler wrote a sympathy message

“Just knowing Al Kochenderfer was a gift. We all enjoyed his company and acquaintance. As his roommate in OCS at Fort Knox, his contagious enthusiasm kept many of us motivated when faced with so many grim challenges. Al's leadership was inspiring and brought honor to the term Veteran. How fitting that this legendary Cavalryman will be buried on Veterans Day at 1100 hours. We may have lost a great "Battle Buddy" but, well never lose the great memories he gave us. Wayne & Mary Kirkpatrick”
