Al, regarded as "the dean of construction management" in Cleveland, died there May 10, 1998, of prostate cancer. He was 73. He was the founder and president of Applied Project Management Co., a construction and consulting firm. Al also taught construction management as adjunct professor at Case Western Reserve and Cleveland State Universities, and wrote Management of Small Construction Projects.

Back at Princeton he was a varsity wrestler at 128 lbs., winning the Big Three Ivy championship in 1947. He belonged to Cannon Club.
Al completed his AB in 1948 and a master's in civil engineering in 1950, then started his career with Turner Construction Co. in NYC.
Al moved to Cleveland in 1967 to become v.p. of Hunkin-Conkey Construction Co., then launched his own business in 1970. He lived in Cleveland Heights.
His wife, Dorothy "Dottie," to whom he was married 38 years, survives him, as do his sons Matthew, Peter, and William '91, a grandson, and four sisters. The class extends its deep sympathy to them.
