Al was a good human. He genuinely respected and preserved nature on a daily basis, studying, preparing for and nurturing both plant and animal life throughout the changing seasons. He quietly helped us/looked out for our safety and comfort without drawing attention to his efforts and was always happy to stop and chat, no matter what the weather, for hours. We will miss him very much and will always be grateful to him for the positive impact he made: His friendship, stories, life lessons, his devotion to and respect for animal and plant life and especially for bringing his most special family into our lives. We will always remember you with a smile, Al!
