After serving in the Navy in the Second World War he became a longtime resident of Waterloo and was an avid HAM radio operator using the call letters VE3 ENK. In his later years Al became a resident of the Emmanuel Village and spent many an hour schooling his new friends in the finer points of billiards. His other favorite pastime was to settle in to the soft arm chairs in the main lounge for a quick nap in the sunshine.
