I just learned of Al's passing and would like to extend my sincere condolences to his family.
As a designer, it had been my pleasure and privilege to have worked with Al for over 20 years.
He applied his extensive knowledge and years of experience to each project, always assuring impeccable workmanship and attention to detail.
Aside from his expertise, he was one of the nicest people I have worked with over the years.
I am so sorry for your loss.
I think he will be dearly missed by many in the design community, who came to know and love him over the years.
