I'm so sorry for your loss. I will always remember Al as the only person to ever call me Tie-a. He used the sing the song, "Tie a Yellow Ribbon Around the Old Oak Tree" whenever he saw me. I will remember him fondly, especially when I hear that song. Because he hung out with my older siblings at Hereford park, I always felt I had another person looking out for me. May he rest in eternal peace.
