    I am sorry for your loss… for our loss. I’ll remember Al for being a spirited friend, always willing to help, and having a memory for facts that absolutely astounded me, be it sports, music, whatever. Rest in peace Al.

    I was shocked & profoundly saddened to hear of my closest friends passing. We have known each other for close to 60 years. Al was always there for me, & would do anything & everything he could do for a friend. Besides being a fanatic sports fan, Al had a fantastic memory of remembering oldie songs & their artists. I will fondly remember all the times we shared together. Rest in peace my friend, I will miss you.

    I am very sorry for your loss. While you are grieving, the passing of your loved one; death will be no more Isa. 25:8 No family will say goodbye to their loved ones. Jesus promises there will be a resurrection I. Acts 15:24 What a wonderful day that will be.
