Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
I know that my mother and father (Dorcas & Bob Spicer) would want me to write and tell you how much Al meant to them. They never stopped telling us about the block parties and good times they had visiting with you all. My sister, Charlene, and I feel the same. Al was so helpful to us during the loss of daddy and the multiple changes that had to happen for mother. Mother is slipping more and unable to send her regards. Please know that Charlene and I are praying for you and your family. What a wonderful legacy Al has left. With love,
