Al,
You were the only one who said "Thank you" at the end of my first grueling week as a new grad x-ray tech in 1990. That meant a lot to me...still does.

Al, we miss you at band, you were a good euphonium player and very nice person. I remember talking to you about making bread and mentioned that our bread maker quit working. You brought yours in and gave it to me, and we're still using it. That was such a sweet thing to do. I miss you.

Al was a huge source of knowledge in the radiological sciences and as a technologist for over 20 years, I will be forever indebted to him for his mentoring.
