My path first crossed with Al's in the 1970s. Our unique sense of humor and skewed way of looking at the world insured that we would travel many miles together and enjoy every moment. We traveled much of western Michigan. I escorted him on his first trip to Canada. We took one trip to the U.P. and Canada again. Lots of laughter filled those miles. He honored me by asking me to stand with him as he wed his beautiful Deb. Shortly after that our paths separated as mine diverged to Seattle. But my heart still rings with joy as I remember my friend.
