With great regret I heard of Al and his death. He was best friends with my father, Richard, whom he referred to as 'Dick'. I remember him bringing up some Kentucky moonshine in a mason jar, and I brought back some Polish spirit vodka which was just as fine. It's the short memories we keep of our Fathers, but in them we know they loved us. Keep them in your heart, you will find pieces of him becoming you. God bless and stay strong.
