My condolences to Al's family, neighbours and friends. I have not seen Al since Christmas Eve when I visited him to thank him for his business and his friendship. I got to work with him to achieve what he wanted for his kitchen renovations. Al was a man who would listen to your ideas, assess them and revise them to exactly what he wanted. I loved that about him. He had great plans for his lovely stone home and had made such wonderful progress. Al spoke fondly of his family and was proud of the business he had built before retiring. I will miss his smiling face and warm welcomes.
