We're always here if you want to talk about it. We wish you all the healing and kindness in the world. A loss like this is felt by all. He was a special, unique person, and he will be greatly missed.

Dearest Sisters Leslye, Michel, Kelli & Family, there's not many who can say they have/had lifelong friends! I treasure the relationship we have had over the years and will be forever grateful for the memories and time spent! Al was very special to me! I prayed without ceasing that he would recover... Yes Leslye, he is now at peace! Al was a fighter, and he fought the good fight! He never complained, he just did his best to live life the best he could. He was a generous soul, and looked out for everyone. I will miss him beyond measure of my heart! God continue to bless and keep you all in his care during and beyond this challenging time. Much love, prayers, & blessings, Ardelia "Dilly" & Family

I am truly sorry for your loss. I know how much he meant to everyone. My heart goes out to all of you, and I’m here for you. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help. I love you all dearly.

Words of sympathy feel inadequate in expressing grief and sorrow for a loss so great. Sending a warm embrace and all our love during this time. Please know that our thoughts are with you and may God renew  your strength. 
Love, The Graves Family🙏

AL, It was great hanging out with you and the "crew" all those early years. Lots of memories, and trouble too. Lol! Rest in peace.

I worked with Al at New York Telephone. He was  funny, and a gentleman.  One of my memories of him is when a group of us went to Apollo Amateur Hour. We had so much fun. May God comfort his family and friends. And may he RIP 🙏🏼

Uncle Uncle Uncle…I know I gave you specific instructions – Do Not Die on My Birthday! 
But now as I sit and think about it, maybe I should’ve said I’d prefer you to still be here on my birthday. 

And although this voicemail is old, at least, I’ll always have it to play every year and hear your voice. 

Love You & Miss You Already 
Your Favorite Niece
