Dear Mientus Family,
On behalf of the entire Kerr Family,I would like to extend our condolences on the loss of Al. I know we are getting to the age when our parents are starting to falter, it is still hard to take it. I am sorry I was not able to attend the service but our thoughts and prayers were with your Family. Our family goes back a long way with my mother attending high school with Al and jane and Karen bowling together for years and the great times we had at McKinley park when Steve and Al were in summer Camp with myself and my sisters...I'm sure a lot of good stories were told about your Dad and we were glad to see him when he was working the 9th dist and always stopped by the house on 36th St to say hello!

My sisters and I were shocked and saddened when we learned that "Uncle Al" had passed. My Dad, Joe Kwiatkowski, loved Al so much and always had funny and wonderful things to say about him. We all remember the days when they were partners and were so close it was like there were twins.
We remember the days our two families hung out. We felt as if we were blood relatives, that's what a great family you are.
Fran, my Mom wishes you the best as do my sisters and I. I wish we knew about this sooner, we would have been there for you.
Our prayers are with you and your family in this difficult time. We have been through it and remember how supportive "Uncle Al" was to us when our Dad passed in 2000.
Our best to you all.
God Bless..........
Kimmy (Thompson), Wendy (Sprewer) and Jodi (McLawhorn) Kwiatkowski and also Nancy Kwiatkowski.
We love u!
