Al was my father in law. He was an amazing granddaddy, father, friend and husband who always provided and put his family first. He accepted me into his tribe from day one, and always had our backs no matter what. He will be very dearly missed but I will always make sure Greyson  knows what a legend his granddaddy was. 

Al and I went through many memorable times  together.    The music concerts where somehow Al brought the attention of the performers to us.   Like unfurling “Dixie” at the John Anderson concert or yelling “War Eagle” at Hank Williams Jr. (a Bama fan).  

We hunted elk in Colorado and pheasants (behind Molly”) and geese in Nebraska and Iowa.  Often not too successfully, but always with great enjoyment.   While we were different in many ways like North and South or Left and Right,  we were still like brothers.  I loved him and will miss him  always.
