"But it's a lot more special now because I think we all feel closer—even as the kids grow up. My daughter Courtney [33] just got engaged, Leila [21] lives in Paris, and my son Nick [17] can slap away any shot when we play basketball." (Al, his wife Deborah Roberts, and kids Leila and Nick are pictured here.) See his Father's Day picks! 02 of 10 Retro Bookends "Vinyl is back, baby. And so are books.
