AJ, you were such a charasmatic individual. You had this incredible ability, you could make anyone smile. Just writing your name, brings back all the found memories of the good times we shared over the past 20 years. You truly were "one of a kind". Your loss saddens my family deeply and I will truly miss our friendship. Dave & Val, you've always been like family to me and my heart goes out to you both.

Val & Dave,

I knew your father when were both kids growing up in Cohoes. It's been over 40 years since we last saw each other. Reading the entries, sounds like he never changed. Same old happy, smiling person! I mourn with you.

David and Val,
My heart is broken at the loss of your wonderful Dad. He was the best- just a wonderful, funny, genuine friend.
The two of you were the lights of his life. He often remarked how blessed he was to have such wonderful children.
I will keep your Dad's memory in my heart always. I miss him already!
My heartfelt sympathy from my family to yours.

We would like to send our love and support on the loss of AJ. He will surely be missed during the Siena and River Rats games and especially the ECAC tournaments. AJ always had a smile on his face and made us all smile. He enjoyed life and was always upbeat. May he Rest in Peace. Our thoughts and prays will be with his family-- especially his daughter and son who enjoyed coming to the bar and having a beer with their Dad before they went in to watch the game.

Dear Valarie and David,
Your father was a wonderful person and I am so sorry for your loss. I knew your father for the last 15 years - he always had a laugh and something good to say. My husband and I saw him about a week ago, and he still talk of the good time we had when we went to the Democratic picnic a few years ago. Our favorite joke was calling his "red" cadallac "orange"!
He often talk of you, his children, and how proud he was of you both. My prayers and thoughts are with you during this very difficult time. Sincerely, Kathy (Burroughs)DeRosa.
