Al was one of those people that you instantly loved the first time you met him. His humor and pleasant laugh would always lift ones spirits. My wife and I enjoyed cruising with Al and Judy in our Hot Rods. We attended car shows throughout Oregon and nearby states. Als love for cars was always on display through his eye for perfection and detail. We will miss Al immensely and will always feel honored that Al was part of our lives. We love you Al.
