"To Alice - Stacy and I were speaking the other day about Al, it was only then I found out about his passing and was so sad. Wanted to send you a note about remembering your dad. I truly enjoyed spending the time with Al when he would come in for his visits at TVD, what a guy! Still at his age to have such a sweet and kind personality made him one of my most memorable (and favorite) patients. Even now I can picture his sweet smile.. You and your family are in my thoughts and I am glad he and I were able to strike up a friendship - it was always my pleasure to see Al. Take care and god bless ! Peggy Moore"
