Claire, I am so sorry to hear of Al’s passing. We were neighbors at Rock Manor and I always enjoyed stopping and chatting with you when I was walking. I moved to Myrtle Beach after I lost my Al in 2014. Hugs and prayers.”

It is very hard to find the words to express my sadness at hearing of Al's passing. We graduated from Mark Hopkins and Drury High School together and worked on several class reunions. He was a very special person. My condolences to Claire and family.
