So sorry to hear of Al's passing. He was a friend, mentor and co-worker in my Medicine residency days at Parkview in the 1970's. I had not seen him in years, but always smile when I see his signature on the Residency Certificate which hangs in my office. He was quite a special person and will be missed.
