Al was by far and away the best boss I ever had.  He really did care about us and would have done anything for us.  I knew while my husband was on his year remote if I needed anything all I had to do was ask.
I am so sad that he lost his battle with cancer and that I won't be there for his memorial.  I know the NCOA will send him in a great way.  My thoughts and prayers will be his family.
