Al, we will miss you. I met AL at the Woods at Holly Tree. We talked, laughed, and played bingo together with my Mom who ironically died two days after Al. You will always be in our heart. Rest in peace and if you happen to see Mother in heaven, try not to pick on her too much. Love you! Denny and Lee Ann Rutledge

I was so surprised and sorry to learn of Al's passing. For a number of years he was the MC for the Hi Steppers dance troupe at the senior center. We did many shows together and he was always a joy and a wonderful asset. May the blessings be to the family.

Uncle Al, you were a very unique person. You always had your faith and sense of humor together. My time with you is not forgetable and you will always be in my heart. Rest in Peace and say Hi to Mom and Dad for me. You loved and you were loved a whole lifetime. Quite an accomplishment for anyone. Thank you for all you have given, not just to me but everyone around you. I will always love you.
