HELP !!! Looking for Al Arasim's Family

[Alleycat]

I've been informed that Mt. Dora FL local hospital and police are looking for contact info for Al (aka yoohooal). Relatives / next of kin.

If you have any Leeds, please contact me here and Renee DuBois (his supervisor at the hospital where he works security) at 352-409-0950

Placing this here so most will see it. Mods - feel free to relocate.

They won't release info to me so all I know is he's alive. Sounds serious.

I'll update if there's anymore to share.

I'm sure he'd also appreciate your thoughts and prayers.

[FFJim]

YooHooAl definitely is in my prayers.

[rexflexall]

Oh wow prayers sent!

[willy wonka]

Prayers sent!

[Alleycat]

It is with immense sadness that I pass on the news that our friend and fellow Funko Hall of Famer Al Arasim / yoohooal passed away tuesday night while at work of a heart attack. He was indeed as he liked to say "a really swell guy.

Rest In Peace, dear friend.

[Sarcasticguy]

Rest in peace Al, condolences to all the Funatics who knew him. It's always sad day to lose someone.

[CaseyJones14]

Rest in peace, Al

I never got to meet you, but I always had great interactions with you here on the forum. See you on the other side!

[FFJim]

RIP, Friend

So sad to hear! I spoke to Al a few times every year and always looked forward to getting to hang together for a drink every time I was down in Florida!! You will be dearly missed my friend!!

Sad that we are losing one from the Funko Family.

Rest in peace, Al!

[FFJim]

Very sad news. Al was indeed a "swell guy". RIP, Friend.

In memory of Al, watch a show he was in. As an actor, Al disliked "reality" TV for displacing talent with unpaid people.

Never had the pleasure of meeting him. Rest in Peace.

Rest in Peace Al, you were one of the first funatics I met all those years ago at the first FDO if I'm remembering right. You were always a pleasure to be around and I'll never forget how welcoming you were to a kid that wanted to collect bobble-heads to the Funko Family. Thanks for everything Al, you will be missed

[yellowrice]

Very sad to hear. My condolences to his family and to our Funko Family that knew him. Rest In Peace.

[Charger14]

What a sad day. I will remember the years at SDCC. Would first run into him lounged in a folding chair in line to get in and later run into him again hanging out at the Funko booth. He was so gracious to open his house to us for our first FDO. He was the embodiment of the Funko spirit. Rest in peace Al.

[willy wonka]

RIP Al.

Rest well!

[FireEmblemZack]

AL WAS ONE OF THE BEST. FUNNY AND GENEROUS MAN. LIKED A GOOD CIGAR AND MADE THE BEST MARTINIS. HE WAS AN ACTOR. I WILL MISS HANGING OUT WITH HIM. AL USED TO HOST FDO HOLLYWOOD BEFORE IT TURNED INTO FDO LA.

R.I.P. BRUTHA AL.

Al was such a great Funatic. Someone who was liked by everyone, and a friend to all the old school fanatics. He will be missed.
