I wish there was something I could say or do to ease the pain in your heart. But grief is a difficult personal journey that we all must take- one step @ a time- in order to complete and heal. What it takes, how long it takes to get through, is different for each of us. Patience, love, support & kindness make the journey more bearable.

Al was a good man and friend to work with and learn from. It was a privilege to work with him at Ingalls. May God rest his soul and give Bea and the rest of the family comfort during the days ahead.
