Did Al Brisco die?

Post by Keith Hilton »

A friend of mine called today and told me Al Brisco died. Is that true or false?
Al has been a dear friend of mine for 40 years, I pay it is just a rumor.

I can't see anything online about him passing away.
There is nothing on his website about it.
I will send a couple of messages to some steelies that know him tomorrow morning.
I met him once in Australia in 2014. He is a great guy

No, Al has not passed away. I've been in contact with him over the past 3 weeks and just sent him a message this morning.
He is retiring and he has sold his house so he's in the middle of trying to get moved.

He is alive and well, just busy with life.
