Al and his family were a huge part of my childhood. They lived across the street, the kids played with each other and we shared holidays together. It is hard to believe how we lost touch over the years. Seeing Al's obituary has brought back many memories. He played an important part in me and my families' lives. - Posted by: Shanon Thompson (Friend) on: Nov 19, 2005
