Not sure what to say?

Al was always there - at anytime after 3:00/3:30 a.m. Arizona time - to answer my call to talk about business, personal matters or just to say hello. We first met rolling out Brooks Brothers stores across Canada and spent many days and nights over the years in New York, Las Vegas, Toronto and Vancouver going from 30 minute meeting to 30 minute meeting with Landlords on the ICSC trade show floor and it never failed to amaze me how much people loved him. Walking along the aisles of the...

Our Dear neighbor just shy of a year, yes we played golf , we shared good food, I was honored to prepare the best baby back ribs he ever ate, and we know he was a world traveler. We enjoyed great conversation with fresh blueberry muffins and strong coffee. We are envious of those that knew Alex for a life time. We are blessed that he called us his Friend. One of my favorite conversations with Alex, he shared a poem with me. The Man In The Mirror Written by D. Wimbrow 1934. We miss you so !!!!

Right about now Al is enjoying the great golf courses in heaven. His eyesight is 20/20, he is strong and he's smashing the ball down the middle.

My cousin, Al McCullough, was truly special and very much like his father before him, just with a different set of challenges and opportunities. I´m so greatfull to have reconnected with him in recent years. Together we published a book,"McCullough Stories" in tribute to and as something of a love letter to family past and present. His reputation as a warm, wonderful man is well deserved.
