    I was so surprised to hear of Albert’s passing. He was such a good guy and I can’t help but remember how he’d sit back grinning as you’d be picking, teasing and carrying on with him and everyone around you. I always felt honored that Albert asked me to be his best man when you guys were married and I will always treasure that memory. Take care of yourself, Ellen. I’ll be thinking about you during this very sad time. I’ll give you another call soon so we can remember all the good times.
