Good-Bye Al

[ilmbaba]

Don't
be dismayed at
good-byes. A
farewell is necessary before you
can meet again.
And meeting again, after
moments or lifetimes,
is certain for those
who are
friends.

So long, my friend. I'll fish with you again.

Elliott W.

Today, the fish are crying.

[Hans Weilenmann]

Al,

Rest in peace, my friend. I am saddened by the finality of your life on this earth, am grateful your suffering has come to an end, and I celebrate the memories of your person and the legacy which you have left to us all.

My heart goes out to Al's family and friends, this is a difficult time indeed.

-We cannot pretend that the world begins and ends at the boundries we might make for it. Sometimes we must acknowledge that it extends itself into our lives in ways we might prefer it wouldn't, and we must face up to the challenges it offers.

My heart, thoughts and prayers go out to Al's family and friends. He will be missed.

Rest in peace, Al. tight lines in heaven

We have lost a good one. Caught and released back to God. My heart is heavy. and the words come hard. My thoughts are with Al's family. Thanks for the post and letting all his friends here on FAOL know. Be at peace my friend.

[Dot Man]

Our loss is heaven's gain. Al has joined many that have gone before and is now casting with them into the streams of heaven. Rest in peace Al.

I'm at a loss this morning. How come a person I never met makes me take pause? Maybe it's because the written word is personal in a way that other communication forms can't compare.Go in peace. You made friends and touched people that you never even knew.Robb Howard

[Colston Newton]

Sorry to hear about Al.

[Marco]

Unfortunately our paths never crossed but nonetheless, I feel the loss of a friend. He shared with us all his knowledge, art and time. It's sad he was not given more of the latter.
Al, you can rest in peace. You have given.
