Al was raised in New York City, graduated from De La Salle Academy and Manhattan College and received an MBA from New York University. He was a member of the U.S. Army reserves for 12 years. He was employed by Montgomery Ward and S&H Green Stamps before going into his own business for the next 25 years. He was a parishioner of St. Pius X Church in Old Tappan and served as an usher and weekly collection counter.
Al was a renaissance man known for his diverse talents and interests. He was an active gardener, oil painter, cook, reader, investor and furniture restorer. He had active interests in art, antiques, the stock market, food and wine. But most of all, he was a loving and engaged husband, father and grandfather to his family.
