Alfo was a great friend in High School. He was 1 strong guy. He maxed out the weight machine in gym class.One day walking down the hall, I punched him in fun & ran out to the parking lot. He ran after me, I jumped into my little yellow Triumph GT-6. Alfo ran up behind me & actually lifted the back of my Triumph up off the ground w/me in it & engine running! I rolled down the window & laughingly said. "You'll have to set me down to get me, & when you do I'll be long gone!" Well he sat my car down & we had a good laugh & I got a memorable punch in the arm the next day.
Another time Alfo convinced me to go do a lawn job by his GF's because her dad or the neighbor had given him some garbage & he wanted to get back at him. So w/Alfo shotgun, we did a good lawn job w/my little Triumph & split. There's a huge list of stories involving me & Alfo. I'm sorry I lost touch w/him & I know he will truely be missed. Rest in Peace Alfo, I'll be saying a prayer for you & your family!
