    Gail, Melissa and family. I always enjoyed talking with Al at work. He was always willing to help me transfer a patient, put my films through in the darkroom or offer sound advice. He was an interesting fellow with a very kind heart. He will be missed. With thoughts of you and deepest sympathy.
