Kim,Matt and Sean. Our most sincere condolances to you and your families. Al and I had many great times especially fishing. Ellen loved it when Al stopped over and they both made fun of my lack of common sense. We both enjoyed stories about his adventures with his grandchildren. Al had a tough road down the stretch so may he rest in piece. He is a friend that I will always remember especially when I go fishing.

Thinking about the Johnson family with sympathy. Kim, Sean, Sarah, Sydney, Liam, and Jack come to mind first but I'm sure there are many who are going to miss him. Peace be with you.
