Al enjoyed life and lived each day to the fullest. He always said "never sweat the unimportant things in life". He loved the outdoors, especially pool volleyball. You could always find him tinkering around the house listening to Julio Iglesias's "For All The Girls". His greatest love was his family, especially his 5 grandchildren. Al had a heart of kindness that touched so many people.
