He is also survived by 10 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren that he adored, as well as numerous loving nieces and nephews.

Al was an avid hunter who considered his friends from the Ponderosa Hunt Club in Cumberland County, Virginia to be his family.

Al will be remembered forever for living life on his terms, for loving his family, for honoring his word and for staying true to what he believed. He will be loved and missed immeasurably.
