Mr. Al was a great man and neighbor. From the day I bought my house across the street from Mr Al back in 98, I so enjoyed our conversation from A to Z and he called it like it is. 20+ years of memories, wisdom and laughter shared between friends will stay close to me. Always willing to help others. He was a great man, father, grandfather, neighbor and most of all, my friend and a mainstay of our little culdasac of 5. I will miss you Al.
