I worked with Al at Dauber's Pharmacy in O'Fallon, many moons ago. I haven't seen him in as many years, but he was a great man. I remember him as being funny and just a happy guy. He was always good to me and tolerated me as I was just a teenager when we worked together. I'm so sorry for your loss, sending my deepest condolences.
