Kathy, I am so sorry to hear the news. I worked as a computer programmer at the Department of Labor for 37 years and was friends with Al for a long time. He established a group of white water canoeing enthusiasts there named The Deep Six. I was proud to be a member of that group. We (Al, Jim Tansey, Dave Berard, Mike Monet, Phil and I )
pooled together the money to buy 3 small canoes and went canoeing occasionally in the Sacandaga area. I eventually bought my own Coleman canoe and canoed often after that. I also played tennis often with Al. He was quite a character! He always wanted to win! My wife Kathy knew you and Al also and sends her condolences. Al was one of the few people at DOL that was a true friend. I also can relate to him as I have had cancer 7
times now, and have been a life long NY Yankees fan. I will miss him.
