Al was truly a gem of a man. He possessed all of the good and decent qualities that made him so beloved, respected and cherished. He always made everyone feel welcome, loved and appreciated. On behalf of our Sawyer family, we extend our warmest condolences and love to the entire Olinde family. We will always love dear Al and our precious Verline.
I remember Al as always being so generous in sharing his time and talents. Our family always loved visiting our New Roads relatives. There was ALWAYS much fun, music and laughter when we got together. I’m sorry I will not be there to celebrate his wonderful life with everyone.
Sending much love,
