Al was a friend to all and offered a helping hand to those in need. An amazing man! May the family find Peace in God’s love.
Wanda and family. What a wonderful man your dad was. His smile would light up a room and his beautiful thick hair was envied by many . Al was a special friend to Jimmy (deceased) and me. May your comfort be in God. Many blessings.
I will never forget him. He will always be in my heart.
Wanda I have good memories of when we were in high school and being around your dad. He was always sweet to me.
My Prayers are with you and the family through this difficult time. May the Lord hold your hands give you strength and guidance! Love always
Al was a kind man and was a friend to me during part of the darkest time in my life. I will never forget that time in my life when he opened his home to me. He always offered a helping hand and believed the best in people. I am so sorry for your tremendous loss. R.I.P. Al Moon
Al had a presence about him, leaving you feeling warm and loved- in his special way! I will miss that smile of excitement- when he saw me coming to visit. Made each and every time special for me. I will always hold those memories dear and reserved in a special place in my heart. May the Lord bless his soul and comfort the family. He will be greatly missed by many. ❤️
We all have special memories of Uncle Al. I have had to come back to reality today after vacation and accept the fact that Uncle Al is gone from this earth. Wanda Gail and Debbie, my thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. You have so many sweet memories and must be so touched that your Dad was loved so dearly by all those who knew him. He was a dear man to us all! I will miss him so much, his phone calls, his visits, his smooches, and just being able to drop by for a cup of coffee when I am visiting back there. Life goes on but it will never be the same without him. I dearly loved Uncle Al, he was a very special man in my life!
Al was a special long-time friend. His New Year’s Day gathering was always on my calendar, and I appreciated that he was such a generous host. I’ll always remember him and send condolences to his loving family.
