Elizabeth, Time did not take the sparkle out of Al's eyes! He was a fine man, human & neighbor, & we're sorry to hear of his passing.

Our dear neighbor Al will be greatly missed for his humor and enthusiasm for the big and small things in life. He was a man who was young for his years and consequently made us feel youthful too. He will be missed, admired and always remembered. The Millers
