Al was 5 foot, 1 inch and bigger than life. He never sat quietly in the corner. He was in the middle of everything everywhere he was. He never followed the Rams or Cardinals but he could tell you what the Dow Jones did every day. He was late to everything and those quick to catch on always lied to him about the time to be somewhere. It was running family joke. But several years ago when he was told he had a terminal health condition and would die soon, thank God, he was late for that too, hanging on for two years in hospice. We love and miss you, Dad.

We are so sorry to hear about the passing of Fo. He was such a wonderful person to be around. Always kept everyone laughing. You have our deepest sympathy. We will not be able to attend Fo's services due to the fact that mom (Theresa Guccione) is in the hospital. We will be thinking of him and the family.

Love Tammy Guccione Miller, Donna Guccione Recchione and Theresa Guccione.
