Al was my good friend and golfing partner (buddy) for nearly 5 years several years ago. We spent a bunch of time from early spring to late autumn golfing at both Brunswick Greens and Mill Road Golf course in Latham and generally had a some fun times doing so. He not only was a good golf partner and mentor to me, but he was also like a big brother that I had never ever had in my life before. I'll always cherish the golf outings and also the usual Monday morning conversations that we had at the Stewart's Store that is located a couple of blocks away from his residence. To Cat, Chris, and Adam I am extremely shocked and disturbed to find out that Al has passed on. My wife and I had seen him perhaps 2-3 months ago at Market 32 in the Hudson Valley Plaza and I'm so glad that we got to talk with him briefly that one last time. My sincere sympathy and condolences to all of you who were close family to him. Al was a good friendly, decent man and I'm so glad that we shared an amazing part in each other's lives by being such good friends. God bless him in so may ways and may he forever RIP.
