A Salute to Al

Our neighbor of ten years, Al, passed on yesterday afternoon. Never could you find a better neighbor. I'll miss his cheerful hello's especially to the children as he took his daily walks with his best friend, Fred. Al regularly did kind things for our family. I'd find the lawn mowed or he'd share his good produce among other things. He and his wife would make a meal for us after our babies were born. Every time the children would visit Al with a small gift they would come away with a little more confidence and a sweet goody. It was a pleasure learning how to live better from our neighbors as we visited across the fence. So here is a salute to an honorable man and his family at his passing. Thanks Al.
