I remember Big Al. (I originally joined the MM forum back in the late 1990's - but that profile was deleted - most likely due to a period of non-use while I was distracted with other things...)
It is sad to see some of the most active mini folks passing away. They had lots of mini knowledge... It is hard to believe that so much time has passed! Surely there are brand new minis for all up in Valhalla!
The board was quite active back then - it was hard to keep up with the new posts even checking daily!

Couple of my favorite photos of Big Al. I really liked that 1275 Orange Clubby that went to "Ron in Maine?"I think...Al scared the bejeebers out of me in that thing. LOL

Bill says he BIG AL would have been 91. Never met him except by email and phone to arrange send him a big pile of Mini magazines - he liked to "throw in" a few to his customers. Such a gentleman! Miss him!
