Al, you will be greatly missed! You and your singing and smile and laugh were "Church" to me for 40 years… As a child visiting with the Bill & Dorothy Hill family, through my 20's as a member of Our Savior, raising my children and returning as a visitor. I would watch you greet everyone with that beautiful smile. I would hear your laugh and look to see who was benefitting from the sound. I would listen during hymns to hear your low, melodic sounds and best of all was Christmas Eve (and your birthday) service! It was like the Angels were there and you were leading them. Al was what I consider the best Christian I have ever met. His humor, his faith, his friendship, his knowledge, his consideration for every person, his giving nature, his love for the Lord, his family and his church, were beyond what most people would or could even try to imitate. All of us that knew Al, loved Al. I will cherish the wonderful, precious memories I have stored in my heart and soul of Al for always. RIP Al and I will see you again my friend! Love & hugs & prayers to each of you mourning the loss, but celebrating his eternity. God bless
