I'll never forget you AL. You may not ever know how much you touched all of us. That smile with your jokes. And still at 80 years of age you could hang out with all of us guys in our 20's and 30's. When you were tired you never showed it and kept us all laughing. When we practiced you dancing by yourself always made us play a little harder and brought a smile to everyone. You made Uptown something so special. We all looked up to you and are going to miss you SO MUCH. I wish I could have you for another 80 years. Please kiss Helen for all of us because I know how muched you loved her.
Your Friend,
Johnny
P.S. I think your were rihgt AL, the Eagles may never win the Super Bowl

Uncle Angelo,
When I think of you I remember the times in Wildwood at the Thunderbird. You always were the life of the party. The other thing that I will remember you by is that you could never remember my name, and you always asked Lisa what it was. Rest in peace Unc.
Your Nephew in Law

I didnt know Al for but a short time but I know he was an awsome person. Whenever I would go to Uptowns practices it just would never be the same without seeing Al and having a small talk with him. He always know what he wanted and wouldnt let anyone tell him other wise and would only have it his way. He had a great soul and will be miss dearly, Uptown will feel very different without his presents. RIP Al you will be missed and I know that you will always be looking down on us New Years Day to cheering us on as we go down the street.

Uncle Angelo,
You will be missed so very much. We will miss your smile, jokes and funny stories that would light up the room when you came in. The way your smiling personality would come out, always looking to get a laugh or a smile and share your love of life with all the people around you. Uncle Angelo, when you walked in the room we always seemed to know it was you as the room would echo with laughter and get a little bit brighter. We also know that the room you are walking into now is holding a smile for you, one you never forgot and always knew you would see again, your beautiful wife Aunt Helen. A person who herself was a wonderful and fun person to be around. We also know now the longing to see her and the silent tears you shed will be replaced with that bright smile you always gave to us.
Love forever,
your neice and nephew
Joann and Joe

Al was a unique guy. His frequent presence at Uptown events always added a special sparkle. He could always get people to laugh. I am glad he got to enjoy the recognition of being inducted into the String Band Hall of Fame. We will miss him.
