I always looked forward to "Dad" coming in the office at Charlestown. He would give me a big smile at the front window & I'd say "Hey Dad!!" I loved his sense of humor too & we would be laughing & kidding each other that other patients would just have to wait because "Dad" was here first!!
I truly believe that "Al" was the most diversely talented and capable person that I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. He seemed highly skilled at just about anything from equipment repair, welding, home remodling, construction work to you name it; truly a man of mant talents. His passing is a great loss to all who knew him...
