Al: Words cannot express my thanks to you for walking Patty back to earth that wintry day, after her fall on the ice. I know you had to persuade her to go back, but if you didn't, then she wouldn't be here today. You saved her life! You're such a very considerate person, always putting others before yourself.

Not all heroes wear a uniform,
and not all angels have wings.
Al, you saved my life
by being there,
getting me to safety,
and not listening to me
when I told you I’d be fine.

Thank you for sharing your life
with me and my family.

You will always be my special hero!
And you will always hold a special place in our hearts.

Rest in peace now, Al, for your life has been lived to its fullest.

I never met a freindlier, caring and giving person as Al. Filled with patience, he always stopped whatever he was doing to help me and my family, and I will never forget him. A loving grandparent to my children, and a source of inspiration for me, he meant more to me than these words can say.... If we had more people like Al in our lives, the world around us would be a better place. I will miss him dearly, and my condolences go out to his entire family.
