I knew Al from my time at Deacon. As smart and witty as any man I ever met. Probably the last time I saw Al was in the late 80's, but to this day, situations bring to mind stories he told and I think back to conversations we had. His impression on me will last the rest of my life. Sympathies to his family for such a loss.

Al was a co-worker, friend, mentor and just a great guy. Al was extremely smart, patriotic, and friendly. He was opinionated, but tolerated other opinions as long as they were well founded. Al had the most outstanding array of stories and jokes of any person I have ever met. He could pull up a story or joke related to whatever the conversation was at the time. They ran the gamut from poignant to hilarious, irreverent to religious. They were a direct reflection of the man. He possessed a wit so dry that you actually had to sit back and consider what he had just said before getting the meaning. A family man, Al helped teach me how important that was to being a good man. Sincere sympathies to Gerry and the kids and grandkids he loved so dearly. We will miss you Al.
