Al was a humorous person and both my husband and I enjoyed his friendship through many years starting in Salinas. We shared many events with their family including a wedding and Al and Laura's anniversary.
We send our condolences.

I worked at the club in Santa Rosa and referred to Al as "uncle Al" because he was so fun to joke around with. We kept in touch for years after he moved to Roseville through email and through Russ Swanson. I'm sorry to hear this news of his passing, my heart goes out to Laura, his family and friends.
