As kids, Al and I attended school together in Baltimore; and did a few things together that kids do. I left for the Air Force in 1954 and didn't see Al again until 1981 when I became an Elk. We had a good time catching up for a while; then he moved away. I will always remember Al fondly; he was a good friend. May the winds lift his wings to Heavens' gates.
