Over the years, much has changed at Bethany Church - except our favorite "Uncle Al". I knew I would always see his cheery smile, recieve the "teasing" & the hugs that came from a very dear friend. My heart & love goes out to Ida & the rest of the family - you are in my thoughts. I know there is a lot of rejoicing in Heaven because Uncle Al is home!!

Albert was one of my favorite patients at the dental office, and I looked forward to his visits and chats about music and many other things. I say a prayer and send love to his family at this sad time. Ida, God bless you and keep close to your family. They take care of us at these times.

Oh, I can't believe Uncle Al is gone...but so glad he is with our Savior he so loved and served. A truly remarkable man of God who I will forever remember as a fun loving man who always had a hug and a kind word for me. Much love and prayers to the family! From Sue Moomjean Rhea aka "Blondy" as Al called me.

Sorry to read about Mr. Elby. Our family has fond memories of our MLK 3- day weekends at your Lake Arrowhead cabin. For many years a few of our friends rented the cabin for that weekend. Our young children would sled down the driveway and now our grandchildren in New Jersey are using that sled. Thanks for the memories. We send our condolences to your extended family.
Sincerely,
Susan and Barry Fisher
