I remember Fr. Al as a very kind and down to earth man, a good priestly colleague and one who was faithful in all ways. May he rest in Christ's peace and rise in Christ's glory.
And Karen, remembering you from Chicago diocesan council, please accept my sympathy. We'll remember Al in the Eucharists this weekend.
