Big Al was the proudest father ever when he and Becky were blessed with their only daughter Ashley Carol Lorraine in October 1991.

His most recent employment was with Baker Hughes. Big Al was a true "Jack of all trades and a master to many … Love, Forgiveness, Patience and BIG HUGS" .. Just to name a few. He was a great teacher of many skills. Recently, he taught his wife how to winterize the camper via phone chat. One of the many skills he taught his daughter was how to service her lawn mower, how to weld, build engines and to be strong. What a great man he was. He always found the best in people. He believed in second chances. "He was a creator of BIG ideas" He was overflowing with love and kindness. Always ready to be spontaneous and go on an adventure. Al "had a child-like way of having fun." Always wanting to make people laugh and wanting his loved ones to be proud of him. Al's smell of cologne would fill the house and linger on you after a great big hug. You — Big Al will be missed. Al loved to go camping, bicycle riding, four wheeling, fishing and motorcycle riding. The mountains were always calling his name. He loved to cook, make homemade bread, peanut butter cookies and green chili. He loved to spend time with friends and family. He loved and missed his early years of dirt track racing and the smell of racing fuel. Al was proud to be called a son, brother, husband, dad, uncle (Unkie), father-in-law, Grandpa, friend and disciple of Christ. If Al was here right now he would say … "Where's my hug?", "Hi pretty girl" and "I love you babe". Al will be missed by his mother Nancy (Bill) Nation, father Lewis Lundblade and Caroline Hake.
