    i didn’t know my grandfather that well but i can say both my grandfather and Al are two of the nicest people you could ever meet. i used to be a mess when i was younger and decided to take a trip to B.C. not knowing anything or anyone except both my grandfather and Al. without even knowing i was coming they both took me in and housed me until i could get on my feet. i know at that time i was not all together and did alot of stuff i shouldn’t have gotten into. i have to say that after a certain instance that happened (Al knows what i’m talking about), i reevaluated my life and did what i could to change my ways. THANKS Al for all you did for me but more THANKS for always taking care of my grandfather. LOVE BRUCE ALWAYS.
