Condolence from Beth McGee on February 3rd, 2021 9:40 AM

Marilyn, Rob, Jen and family
Our deepest condolences to each and everyone of you. I just became aware of Al’s passing this morning. We were shocked because no one wants to hear news such as this of friends who we mistakenly take for granted.
Al will be missed so much by everyone. I honestly cannot even picture him without that big grin of his.
Marilyn, if there is anything we can do to ease your pain, call us. We know you have strong children and they are supporting you as you and Al raised two strong, independent and caring young adults.
You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.
Love from Beth & Rick and family.

Rob & Chris…so sorry for your loss….thinking of you at this sad time in your lives…

Condolence from Deb O’Hagan on October 29th, 2021 12:59 PM

What a wonderful man, and the reason I know that is because he and my dad used to be friends and dad would take us girls with him to visit Al when we were very young. To remember this man from a very very young age to where we are at now proves he was very remember able, he always would stop and talk or just say hi. Marilyn we also remembered you. What a great couple. Thinking of you at this time.
