I had the joy of dispatching Al at CCE from 1999-2004. I will always remember Al as being one of the nicest and most polite individuals I worked with.

I work with Al for about 11 mos in Austell at Coca-Cola and when I met him he had a special ora about himself his spirit was so beautiful. I notice right off he was a beautiful person always smiling and happy. Al could walk in the room and right off you would be happy to see him because he shined always with his beautiful personality. God Bless

I have so many fund memories of my cousin Al, aka as Punchie to me. Running through the country, jumping in the hay stacks, and him trying to convince me that it was okay to eat barbeque that was cut fresh off the pig. Through the years he kept his gentle & kind spirit. He will be missed.

Elaine, our thoughts and prayers are with you.
