Thank you Belinda and Manuel for the service planning you did for Uncle Al. I have fond memories of spending time in San Bernardino with our relatives during our summer vacations. Uncle Al treated us special and was so much fun to be around. I know he worked hard almost every day of his life but I never heard complaints. He was always laughing and kidding with us. He was a good example to me and will be greatly missed.

God is close to those that are broken at heart. Our prayers and thoughts are with the family.

Uncle, you will always be my Godfather and a great influence in my life. You and Dad were like father and son for many years. Though time separated us we were always in each other's thoughts. God blessed us all with your presence. A country boy from the Old Country who had a long blessed life. From your Godson Lee Brooks and family. Say Hi to auntie Eustie and Sybil and Dad for us. RIP....
