Dear Al, there isn't a day that goes by I don't think of you. We use to have so much fun. Especially in October. I wish I could hold you. You had a way of making everything better. I love you and miss you dearly. Always.
I worked with Al at Molex! We were in shock to hear he left us at work and now we are in disbelief of this sad news! He was always telling me crazy stories! I have missed those! Prayers out to his family! He was a wonderful person!
Dearest Christie and family, we are so very sorry for your loss and pain. Praying that God will hold each of you close and give you comfort and His Peace that Surpasses All Understanding. Always here for you my dear. God Bless you all. (((HUGS)))
I had the pleasure of working with Al at Molex. What a sweet precious soul he was. Always lending a hand and a smile. I so missed him when he left. I am so sorry for your loss and pray for peace for your family.
Christie.... I am so sorry for your loss. Please know that there is another Angel in heaven and you will see him again. I know that doesnt help right now but time will heal your heart as best it can considering your loss. Your family are all in my prayers.
Big Al was one of the nicest guys I have ever known. I had been trying to get in touch with him for the past few months, wish I would have tried harder. God must have needed a artist in heaven, he picked a great one.
This photo, it is exactly how I remember Al Christie... his gentle eyes, his sweet smile. He was always, always so kind to me. May his sweet soul rest is peace and may God bless those left to cherish his memory.
So very sorry for your loss. Deepest sympathy and much love to you all.
Those we love don't go away they walk beside us ever day. Unseen, unheard, but always near, so loved, so missed, so very dear. Al will never be forgotten, Christie and family my condolences during this difficult time. Al is with rest of his loving family in heaven. He was a kind and giving person. God Bless you all. Love ya'll Carmen Mason
Oh my brother. My heart is broken into a million pieces right now. Still in shock and disbelieve of you not being here any more. I'm so thankful I got to speak to you just a few days before you left us. You will never know how much you meant to me and the family. We had grown so much closer these last few years. I hate it that I can't see or talk to you any more. I love you and miss you dearly, Rest in peace and hug everyone for us till we see each other again.
