Alford enjoyed a successful career with Laclede Gas for forty-two years. He enjoyed taking his sons dirt biking and loved that opportunity for them to bond together. His bond with Angela was sharing their military experiences and Cindy lived next door to her parents and was their caregiver for several years. In later years, Alford was fond of golfing and was always looking forward to traveling with his wife and making memories together at their destinations.
