The racing driver Al Unser was married to Susan Unser. Susan lost her husband, diagnosed with cancer for the past 17 years.
Al Unser died at the age of 82 at his home in Chama, New Mexico, with his wife Susan by his side. It must be very difficult for Susan to see him leaving.
We extend our condolences to Unser’s family, and may God gives Susan and the rest of the family members of Unser to stay strong at the time of devastation.
