He has not worked as an actor since the early 1990s, is reportedly in ill health, and at last word he was working on an autobiography.

Al is a legend and I hope he gets to finish his autobiography.

I bet he does. Hope he finishes his book. I hadn't realized Al was 90. God Bless him.

I had the pleasure of talking to Al on the phone once, back in the mid 70's. What a nice guy he was. And I'm sure, still is.
Here's hoping his health improves. :cheers:

Awesome! How did you end up talking with him on the phone? :cool:
My grandma (who passed in 1995) and I always enjoyed Al in those On-Cor frozen food commercials. We'd always say to each other, "We'll be at your house at 6 tomorrow!" :rofl:

Al was a celebrity guest/worker at a local MDA telethon here in Illinois. The phones lines were open, and when I called to place my donation, I asked if I might say "hello" to him. (This was a common practice).
I also spoke to Harvey Vernon, who played "Jasper" on the old "Carter Country" show. He was really nice, too! :)
