Al was such a positive and delightful man. He was always ready to give a helping hand to others, a word of comfort and his bright smile. He freely gave of his wisdom and time to his co-workers at Long and Foster. I will remember him for his generosity of spirit and gentle nature. We will surely miss him.

Mr. Shriver was so pleasant to be around. It was a pleasure to assist him at the bank. He will be missed in many ways, but especially for that big smile and positive attitude.
