Has anyone posted on the passing of Al Hylton?

I don't think so. Do you have the info? Please post if you do.

He passed away Friday . The obituary is in the Durham Herald . I was wondering if someone could post pictures if they have any.

RR member, Ed Sanseverino has the 1975 photo below of Al Hylton at Trico posted on his page:
