Dear Louise & Family,
You and Al were wonderful neighbors, and we've missed you so since you moved. We know that Al was blessed with so much joy in this life because of you, Louise, his beloved wife, and your beautiful family. But, we know that he also suffered pain that was beyond description for many years, and so we just Praise The Lord that He chose to lift him from that pain into Heaven, where you will all be reunited one day, and your joy will last for all eternity. God...

Dear Louise; I was so sorry to read about Al in the paper. Stan and I have

fondly Our Condolences go out to you
Louise and your family. May he now find eternal peace. Stan and Pam Wright Rusty and Gerry

A heart of gold stopped beating, two shining eyes at rest, God broke our hearts to prove, he only takes the best. Rest in Peace. Love you Uncle Al.

Having first met Al in the mid-1950's he was always indeed a special caring person, later as we were all adults whenever he dropped by Dorothy & Frank's where we visited from out-of-state, it was always a special pleasure to see him again. All the Ecklunds, their wives, children, grandchildren, & extended families are such unique ones, I know Al will be greatly missed! Sorry we cannot make it to the service on Saturday. Will be thinking of you all.

Al, you'll always be remembered now and always! We'll all miss you! You were always a nice and sweet dude to me and everyone. Always said hi and gave me a wink. Asked how I was doing. Didn't see ya very much, but enjoyed chattin' when I did. Give us all reminders that you'll still around us. Show your family that you're still around in Spirit and can still give signs to remind them maybe if they didn't do something that they were suppose to do. hehe Lots of love Al to you and to all your...

I remember coming to Washington for a visit around the Holidays and you were having a New Years Eve Party. You know how to throw a party. Now you can party all you want. God Bless You and may we always remember what a strong man you were. Love Diane and family
