Gail, ... my condolences. Al and I served together in Thailand during the Vietnam war. I'll always remember Al as quite a character and one heck of a nice guy. You and Al visited my wife Joan and I during the 70's here in the Rochester NY area and much time has passed since then. Please know that I have thought about Al many times through the years ...
