Sorry to hear about (uncle) Alvin passing , (aunt) Betty. If heaven needed any more light, Al will wire it up. I remember when both of you had me paint your living room and my work light fell over and burned a hole in the carpet, both of you naturally said, no problem it can be patched easily ❤. Both of you were so charitable to me and Yvonne. Thank you for the great moments and memories that both of you added to the family. Always in my Prayers ❤

Al was a kind soul who treated everyone with respect. He was generous with his time, had a great sense of humor, and always enjoyed a good joke. I personally have learned a few life lessons from him over the last 50 years, and considered him family. He will be greatly missed, and will be in my heart forever. Share your joy in Heaven, Al.
