I am so sorry about Al's passing. I knew he has been sick a long time but somehow I thought it wouldn't happen so soon. He was very brave and never complained. He almost made you forget he struggled to breathe everyday.I still can't believe it. He will be missed very much. He always welcomed company and was genuinely happy to see you.
MaryAnn you took such good care of him and he knew that. You helped him live longer and happier because you came into his life. Please keep this thought in your heart and please believe it. He loved you very much and I know you know that.
I hope the menu and the chef in Heaven is as good as the menu and cooking in "MaryAnn's Kitchen". He was spoiled with the wonderful meals you prepared MaryAnn and lets hope there is chocolate cake with whipped frosting up there too!:)

MaryAnn and Michelle your both in my thoughts and prayers during this very sad difficult time.
I"m just a phone call away.
With much love and caring,
Sue

The night you met MaryAnn I was there too, you started dating and I was so happy that MaryAnn seemed to find some happiness in her life I thought finally someone to take care of her and love her the way she should be loved. Then you got sick and she took such good care of you. You ended up taking care of each other. I was there at the beginning and I was there at the very end. Rest in peace . Love Cheryl
