It was a great honor and pleasure to work with Al at COG, TRB, ASCE, and elsewhere over many years. He was a valued contributor to the profession. It was a pleasure to talk with him on an ASCE conference call just a few days ago. I feel blessed to have had that opportunity.

Please accept my most sincere sympathy at this time of sadness and loss. Bruce

We active members of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) have warm memories of and much gratitude to Al for his vision, leadership and enduring efforts to make our world sustainable and to guide ASCE to a role of leadership in this international effort. I am grateful personally to Al for inviting me to join in the ASCE sustainability initiative, focus my retirement activities on its important objectives, and enjoy collaborations with outstanding and dedicated persons who are typified by Al himself.
