Al was a big man with a big personality and a big heart. No one he met was ever a stranger for long.
Born in Brooklyn, he served 2 enlistments in the Navy and was a lifelong motorcycle rider and an active member of the biking community. He resided in upstate New York before moving to Florida 24 years ago. He loved Florida with its yearling “riding weather”.
He will be missed greatly by his wife, family and friends. His passing leaves a void which can never be filled.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to Gulfside Hospice.
