Pearl, Jerry, Robbie, Family and Friends....Al was a unique person and will be sadly missed. I met Al shortly after Northern and I were married....He accepted me immediately as part of the family. Al was friendly, funny, knowledgeable, and always supportive of me. I loved Al, and as I learned more about him, he became one of my "special" people. Al was far from perfect, but one could always count on him if he was needed. The world will be a sadder place without Al, but at least his suffering is over. I would say to Al, Goodbye, brother...Goodbye, Friend.
