God Bless,

Jayne and family, so sorry to hear about your dad's passing. I only had the pleasure of meeting him once, he had such a kind gentle face. I wish we could had the honor of knowing him better, especially when he was in better health. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, and your family.

Dear dear Uncle Al....you have left me withthe fondest memories...you were the best; the
kindest uncle any kid could ask for...always there for me. And i was so grateful when you caught me smoking and never told my parents. And when you asked to smell my breath, you saw nothing but a big wad of bubble gum. Happy
childhood memories and all because of you.
Love you Uncle Al, and as you always told me;
Go Easy....and rest in peace.

Dear, dear Uncle Al...what a great uncle you were.
So many memories of you and Uncle Freddie taking care of me as a child. You were the kindest and i will never forget you. Even when you caught me smoking you never told my parents. Your love for your children and your darling wife knew no bounds....and they loved you in return. As you always told me, Uncle Al,
Go Easy and rest in everlasting peace. I love you.
