I knew Al Short through many classes at Elmira Southside. He sat in front of me or close to me in all ot the classes with alphabetically assignned seats, which I recall were most classes. For years we took history, all the science classes, Latin, and some math classes siting together. These are some of my best memories of Al and SHS. In the past 10 years we corresponded frequently, discussing motorcycles, some engineering, and his life in Massachusetts. He was so proud of his wife and son. He was a good hearted person. I liked Al and will, of course, miss him.
