Al was a wonderful neighbor here in Hillcrest. We were sad when he moved, but happy that we knew he would be well cared for in his home. We had just seen him a few week ago . He attended our Smiles Chorus Variety show. We are so greatful that he introduce us to this wonderful group. May he rest in peace with Barbara. My condolences to all his family.
