Al was and always will be my sister's love of her life. He truly gave her 45 years of love and happiness - two amazing sons and a home in the great town of Becket. We will miss his sense of humor, his generosity and kindness, but will always feel him looking down and watching over my sister to be sure she and the family are doing ok. We love you Al and Rest Peacefully!!

He brightened my parking lot with his visits. I looked forward to our talks. I dont know what is going to happen to the quarry, but I do know it wont be the same without him. I am so sorry, it is a loss for all that knew him.
