Al had a heart of gold. He loved life and had so much love for his wife, family & friends. Jane, you made my brother so happy. He always said that God blessed him when you came into his life! He felt the same way about his grandchildren. I will miss the times we spent together at the coast and one of his favorite places, Hearst Castle. I will always cherish the time that God gave him to me. Brother, I will miss you every day for the rest of my life, I love you!

Al was a good friend and always a friendly smile. We always enjoyed spending time with him and were sad when he moved to Fresno. We are so glad he found love and happiness when he went. He will be fondly remembered by our family. Love, The Martins
