Add My Condolences

RIP my friend. I have fond memories of you as a boyhood friend. We dated sisters Sharon and Gail. I joined the Navy after high school and lost contact with you. Pleasant memories.

My heart is heavy with grief at Al's passing; yet filled with joy knowing he is singing praises in heaven - especially singing "In the Garden" with his mother.
Al was a wonderful friend and I will miss him.
I am so sorry that I will be unable to attend the service for him.
(Allison - please reach out to me. I would love to talk to you.)
Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised!

Sad to hear of Al's passing he was a wonderful contributor to the church's music. Al, now rests in the arms of Jesus who he sang and gave praise to on Sundays. Well done good and faithful servant.
