Al lived a very quiet comfortable life with his good friends Matt and Debbie Doucette. Matt and Debbie's daughter Breanne (Nathan) and grandchildren, Kameryn, Kessel and Avery. Al was a huge sports buff, he knew all the teams and the players, the sports channel was a must in our home as he watched it for many hours. Algis loved and pampered his beautiful ragdoll cat Ruby. We will miss you Al, don't worry about Ruby she is being loved and pampered just the way she was accustomed to by you.

Cremation has taken place. Arrangements will take place at a later date with family.
