A tribute to Al -



"That man is a success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who leaves the world a better place than he found it, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem or a rescued soul; who never lacked appreciation for earth's beauty or failed to express it, who looked for the best in others and gave the best he had"



To Fred, Alex & Lisa - may all the wonderful memories of your father replace the saddness in your heart today.



He will be greatly missed by his many friends here in Florida.

I can honestly say that Al was "one of a kind". Even though I only worked for the Verdes for 3 years, they became like an extended family to me. My deepest sympathies to the entire family.

Father,we pray that nothing

of al's life will be lost,but that it will be of benefit to the world,

that all that he held sacred may be

respected by those who follow him.

We ask you that he may go on

living in his family and friends in

their hearts and minds,their courage

and their conscience.

"We have loved him dearly during

life,let us not abandon him until we have conducted him by our prayers into the house of the lord." God Bless everyone.
