In 1971 I was AC's staff manager at Supreme Life Insurance. We we were not only coworkers, turned out to be great friends. I spent time at his home along with my then wife and our three children. As a matter of fact he and I played 9 holes of golf on the day my mother suddenly died of a heart attack. I'll always have very fond memories of him. I mean this with all my heart, he was one of the greatest individuals I've ever met.

My wife and I enjoyed listening to AC since our days in high school. He will be sorely missed. He was an ambassador to the valley and a true legend. Our deepest sympathy to Amy, his children and extended family and friends.
