My mother Eyvonne lucas Holmes worked for Al and johnnie back in the late 50s and early 60 s at Al s seafood. She had great memories of those great people and used them as a benchmark to judge any seafood restaurant for the rest of her life. As a young kid it was a great pleasure to get to go in there and eat. Lots of good memories. My prayers to the family.
