My deepest sympathy to your family at this time of your loss. Al was a decient, hard working person, and a dedicated member of the Armed Forces. Many of us who served with him in the Army Reserve had great respect for his able help. May his soul rest in peace. God Bless, Ray Freas

Your daughter and her family are probably the closest none biological people to my heart. I only met you the one time, but the love that radiated off your wife and your daughter was enough to fill the whole room. I can only imagine what kind of a devout, strong, loving man you had to have been, and where Debbie got it from. I know that you were having some struggles, but hopefully now all your struggles are gone!

Sincerely,
Rochelle Sibitzky
