    I am terribly sorry to hear of Al’s passing. My thoughts and prayers are with Rosie, Darryl, and Kandace. I remember with deep fondness the times we shared together camping, in Hope, and at the house in Surrey. Al was an awesome person. God bless.

  • BRUCE UNRAU says:

    We are sorry to hear of Al’s passing.

    I remember when he was driving for Greyhound his uniform logo said Drive a Million Miles a Day. Al would say that was not just me – it is me and another guy! And then we would have a good laugh.

    With love,

    Bruce, Vicki, Uncle Ike and Aunt Helen

    Uncle Ike and Aunt Helen pass along their condolences.

    We are all thinking of you.

    So many childhood memories!
    Uncle Al was so involved in my family,camping trips, motorcycle rides and just being there as an alternative perspective to talk to. I will miss him, but the memories he left will last forever.

    I love the spirit.
    His mana flows through me.
