I only met Al about 4 months ago. I was looking for some information on the town and was directed to Al. Immediately upon meeting him I realized he was a character. The information I was seeking was provided with great detail within about 5 minutes of my arrival. The next hour was spent listening to Al's stories. Although I only spent just over an hour with Al the memory I have of that day will last a lifetime. When I arrived home the day I met Al I was excited to share the same stories Al told me to my family at the dinner table. I regret now not returning at a later date to again spend some time with a real gentleman. I have no doubt you will be missed by many, you have undoubtedly left an impression on me.
