Numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and countless friends filled out his life.
Al, an Army veteran, began his career as a draftsman, an insurance salesman and owning a graphic design shop, then shifted towards a career as a printer until his retirement. He was an avid stamp collector who enjoyed travel, movies and socializing with his vast array of friends. He was always quick with a joke and loved bringing happiness to others. He was a warm, caring, honest man with a sparkling reputation.
