Journal entry by Samantha Girtz

Hi all, 

Al’s celebration of life is this Saturday at the Minnesota Horse and Hunt Club from 11am-2pm. It is an open house type event, do not feel obligated to stay the entire time. We all know Al was a pretty casual person so we would like the event attire to also be casual. Food and drinks, and key lime pie will be served. 


There will be a 21 gun salute around 11:30, and a flyover should be around 12. 


The deadline for uploading photos to be included in the slideshow is Thursday, September 23rd. Again, if you need help with uploading photos to the Dropbox please reach out. 

For any questions please comment below, or reach out to Jason, Heather, or Samantha. 


Thank you all for your stories, photos, memories, and support you have shared with us over the last few weeks. We look forward to hearing more this weekend. 💕 

-Sam
