My condolences to the family of Albert Eckhoff Jr. My memories of Al go back to the days when we were at Iles Elementary School. I just have good memories of him from those days. We would walk home from school together sometimes. We were good friends as little guys. Whenever I would think about Iles, I would think about Al. I'm sorry to hear of his passing but very grateful that our paths crossed when they did.

My sincere condolences to all. Al was such a great person and left priceless memories in the hearts of all that knew him.

I lost a good friend and mentor. Al hired me as a prep cook when I was just 16. I followed him around for a few years. He taught me a lot and gave me my first chef job when I was 20. I probably would still be trying to paint cars if not for Al's influence. I owe him a lot and I will never forget him. Hope I have helped some people form their careers as Al helped me. That would be a lasting tribute to a very good man, friend and mentor.

Good man, Good friend. RIP AL. Condolences to Al's family.
