Al and Jackie were the first people we met when we first came to St. Monica and they moved across the street from us years later. They were the best neighbors. Their New Years party was always amazing. I will miss Al's stories!

May we express our deepest sympathy to the families of Albert. He was a few years older than us growing up on Institute Hill & he was one who taught us to play ball, & many nice things that we always remember him for. He was our HERO when he joined the Navy & made a career of it. We will never forget him. May he RIP 7 may God bless all of you, during such sad times.
