Hi Al,
Just saw Tara's posting about your grandson Joey striking out 12---wow!
I remember how you would proudly bring him into the Bank when he was so small.
I was thinking about you during this racing season. Can't believe it's over in two days. I'll play a few 3-2-9 triples.
Peace and Light,
Your friend,

Dear Alex
I heard your voice in the wind today and I turned to see your face. The warmth of the wind caressed me as I stood silently in place. I felt your touch in the sun today and the warmth filled the sky. I closed my eyes for your embrace as your spirit soared on high. I saw your eyes in the window pane as I watched the falling rain. It seemed as each raindrop fell you gently called my name. As long as the
wind blows, the sun shines and the rain
falls you will live in my heart forever.
I miss you. Happy Birthday !
Love forever

Hi Al, wow, it's almost your birthday, you'll be 72, I think. Who keeps track, age is just a state of mind whether you're here or in Heaven. I read the message your grandson, Jeffrey, wrote. It made me tear up. I know how much you loved your family, especially your grandchildren. Jeffrey is right, you touched so many lives and you are truly missed. I remember how you used to tease my son, Bill, about girls. Well, you'll be happy to know he and his girlfriend are living together in an apartment and they are very happy. I'm sure you are smiling about that. It'll soon be two years that my dad joined you and the rest of our family in Heaven. I know you are all taking care of each other. I'll write again on your birthday. Love you always. Cousin Georgie

Hi Alex,
i just wanted to say hello. we are always thinking about you. looked at your picture yesterday i still cannot believe you are not here. I can see you with your chef's hat cooking for our family who have passed in heaven. i hope there is a lot of baseball going on and all the things you loved.I don't know maybe you look at things differently when your an angel. whatever way it is I hope it is your way and you are happy. Say hello to Dad for me tell him we love and miss him very much. I wish for you Al peace and love.

It's been a little over 3 years and this is the first time I've decided to write on here..I guess I thought I didn't have much to say..The funny thing that made me write this was I was cleaning the picture that Aunt Tara gave me for my Apt..the one from when you, Uncle Ralph,Big Joe and me were fixing the roof..Ironically I was cleaning it with windex and paper towels and thought about what Markie wrote to you on here about how you taught us to use newspapers instead..haha Well I'm sorry Alec(ITS ALEX X!) I don't have the paper delivered here or else I would have.It's crazy how you miss the weird things... I really miss all the button pushing and teasing..As much as it drove me CRAZY when you were doing it..it is THE number one thing I miss..because I know why you were doing it...I do it to all my GF's and as much as they pout and slap me in the arm its usually followed by a smile..they understand too..I used to ask you for advice on girls all the time and you never told me ANYTHING..haha what I took from you was always be playful and always keep things interesting..I can still see how your face would light up anytime any of us brought over new friends guy or girl..and instantly you would make them feel like they were family no matter who they were.I know we all miss you Grandpa..We still quote you whenever were all together. You know I really hope Heaven isn't perfect either..this way you can stay busy cleaning, painting and fixing things..and don't try that extra stack crap..you will not get away with it;)
Here we are 3 years and 62 pages in a guest book later and people are still signing it..You must have done something right...Grandpa I miss you like crazy brother I really do..I Love ya gramps..Love Peppers

Dear Alex
I did not know that morning that God would call your name. In life I loved you dearly, in death I do the same. It broke my heart to lose you, but you did not go alone, for part of me went with you, the day God called you home.
You left me with fond memories, your love is still my guide, though I cannot see you, I know you're at my side. You're in my heart forever, for this I know is true, there will never be another whom I'll love as much as you. You will always be my hero, my
inspiration and my soulmate.
Loving you for all of eternity.
Love
Velma

Hi Al, happy belated Thanksgiving. Can't believe how fast this year went by. I guess when we get past 50 years old the time starts to fly. So far we haven't had any snow and the temps have been pretty decent but this is just the calm before the storm. It's amazing, Christmas is just around the corner. We'll be thinking of you especially at this time of the year. Be at peace. We love and miss you. Love, Cousin Georgie

Hey Al, it'll soon be your birthday. I miss you and sending you those funny (sometimes off color) birthday cards and "losing" lottery tickets. I hope they made you laugh and then anticipate a BIG win--we all need to dream, it's what keeps us going. With your birthday comes the warm spring weather and being able to spend time outside in the fresh air. I think of you often and I know you and my dad are enjoying each others company. April 20 will be his first anniversary, it's hard to believe almost a year has gone by since my dad left us. My daughter, Jessica, moved into her own appartment with her friend--no, it's not a guy, I know that would be the first question you would ask if you were talking to me. Bill, Jr. is still living at home, working on finishing his degree but it's slow going. You always used to ask me if Billy has a girlfriend. He had two actually but nothing serious--maybe someday. Well, gotta go make blueberry pancakes for Bill Sr. & Jr. In case I don't get the chance to write again before the 29th, I wanted to wish you a happy birthday. Love, Cousin Georgie

Dear Vince and Mark---I was very moved and touched by your comments about your brother and grandfather. He loved you all so much and always, always talked about you and all his family.
You both could not have said such comforting words any better.
Al, I know you are proud of them and of all your family, just as you were here when you talked with me about your family. Enjoy your rest in peace and the amazing light of Christ. You made it, we still have to get there.
Play a litle jazz up there and wow them off their feet!
God Bless your close family,
Your friend,

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT IS TW0 YEARS AND TWO MONTHS YOU LEFT, AND TODAY, IS FOURTEEN YEARS OUR BELOVED BROTHER, TONY LEFT." LIFE, CONTINUES TO GO ON FOR ALL OF US,HERE ON EARTH, BUT A WHOLE LOT DIMMER WITHOUT YOU. AS I CONTINUE MY JOURNEY, HERE, I THINK ABOUT THE GLORIOUS DAY, WHEN WE ALL WILL BE UNITED! WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO HOPE FOR.? WATCH OVER ALL OF US, AND WE WILL KEEP YOU ALWAYS, IN OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. LOVE, YOUR BROTHER, VINCE

hey grandpa, i just wanted to let you know i borrowed your folding table for a party i had over the weekend. I made sure to clean it good when i was done, even though im sure you would clean it yourself anyway. I heard the message you left on our phone again and it got me thinking how spring is coming and we'll all be over your house having bbq's and playing baseball. i just thought id let you know how much we all miss you and we still think about you all the time and alot of times i catch myself doing or saying something that is classic grandpa al, so thank you for the little things we learned from you (using newspaper to clean windows lol). i promise we will pass its along to joey,nick and the two alex's. So im gonna go but i love and miss you. marcus welby

Hi Al, have you seen a cream and light brown colored little dog running around in Heaven? He's my little Shih Tsu, Cocoa, he died the early morning of December 26, the second anniversary of your passing. He was diagnosed with congestive heart failure a year ago in November. We are all still in shock. We loved him so much, he was our baby, and our hearts are broken. We knew he wouldn't be with us for very much longer but we weren't expecting him to leave us so quickly. He had such a great Christmas Day, he opened his two little presents, which we got for him every year. He had his own little stocking with his picture on it and we put his presents in there every year for him to open on Christmas morning. He knew they were in there too because he would always be waiting for us to give them to him. He was perky all day and ate good that day and all of the sudden after midnight, he started to get sick. We rushed him to the Latham Animal Hospital but by the time we got to the parking lot, he had died--he went so quickly, at least he didn't suffer for too long. Please take care of him for us, I know how much you love animals. He's a smart and loving little guy, and he'll make a great companion for you and my dad. My dad loved him very much and he loved my dad too. Well, Happy New Year. I'll talk to you again soon. Love, Cousin Georgie

Dearest Alex,
Somewhere between dreams and memories there is a sacred place, a light that shines inside my heart, the
vision of your face.
Reaching through the distance, your
hand inside mine, you lead me through my daily life and are always at my side.
Because you come to me in oh so many ways, I know you will watch over me the rest of my earthly days.
Until we meet again
Loving you and missing you
Velma

Hi Al, I probably won't be able to get on the computer on Christmas Day so I'm writing a few days early to wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Tell our family who is there with you in Heaven that we miss and love them. Talk to you soon. Love, Cousin Georgie

my buddy alex,
it's been awhile since i've written to you but it's been busy between work and sports.
we still all miss you so much. i was talking about you to my co workers the other day and they were shocked that i used to hang out with someone older than me. i told them that at heart and mind you weren't any older. i used to have so much fun with you. i really do miss you so much. it still isn't the same going to your house without you there.
christmas came so quick this year. it's only a few days away. i hope you have a great christmas with your family in heaven. and watch over everyone here, because we'll all be missing you.
well be good - we all miss you.

Hi Al, just checking in to say hello. The weather has really turned cold lately--I'm not liking it, I hate the winter, although I like the snow for Christmas if we are lucky to have it. I can't believe that Christmas is only two weeks away--seems like we just blinked and the fall was over. I'm sure you are enjoying sunny skies and warm weather in Heaven. Love and miss you. Cousin Georgie

Dearest Alex,
Once a day and sometimes more, you knock upon my day dream door.
And I say warmly walk right in, I'm glad you're here with me again. Then we sit down and have a chat,
recalling this , and discussing that.
Until some task that I must do, forces me away from you. Reluctantly I say goodbye, smiling with a little sigh. For although my daydreams bring you near, I wish that you were really here.
Lovingly your soulmate Velma
PS : Please look after my cousin Elizabeth who entered the Kingdom of Heaven October 22nd.

hey alex,
Well, fall is finally here. I know you loved this time of year, had a lot of work to do to keep the grounds clean, but you didn't care. I know you always enjoyed doing work around, it was almost kind of fun to do. I know you are watching over everyone. I'll write to you later.

Dear Alex
Last night I saw a vision
It was clear as it could be
It filled my room with joy
Cause YOU were there with me.
I realized come morning
That the vision wasn't there
I ached to have you near to me
Why is it so unfair?
Then it struck me
that this vision
Was oh so very real
And I knew there was a purpose
Which now I will reveal
The truth is you are with me
Whether sleeping or awake
My thoughts reveal your presence
With every breath I take
And so Dear Alex I tell you
Even though we are apart
Day and Night Awake or in dreams
You live within my heart.
Thank you for watching over me.
Love forever
Velma

Hi Al, a few more weeks and summer will be over. It rained for most of July and August but for the last two weeks, we've had beautiful weather--It's been warm with blue skies and no humidity, but I think you already know that. Soon the snow will be falling again and it will two years that you left. We still miss you very much, especially your kids and Vinnie. Oh well, we move on with our lives but will never forget or stop missing you. I hope you and my dad are keeping each other company. I know you are probably drinking beer and playing poker a lot. I'll write again soon. Take care. Love, Cousin Georgie

HEY ALEX,
IT HAS BEEN A WHILE SINCE I WROTE TO YOU. EVERYTHING IS GOING WELL, HOPE YOU ARE TOO. WELL, SCHOOL WILL BE STARTING THURSDAY, AND I AM GETTING READY TO GO BACK, AND I BELIEVE SO IS EVERYONE FROM THE BASEBALL GANG IS ALSO. THE BUS INFO CARD KEEPS TELLING ME THEY WANT ME TO WALK DOWN TWO MORE BLOCKS TO GET ON, BUT JOEY AND I WILL STILL JUST GET ON HERE AT THE CORNER OF THE TWO HOUSES AGAIN, THEY COME UP HERE ANYWAY. AS I WAS HELPING VINCE SCAN PICTURES INTO HIS COMPUTER, WE SAW ONE OF YOU AND JOEY WAITING FOR THE BUS HIS FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL, (BUT WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT YEAR IT WAS THOUGH). IT HAS BEEN QUITE A SUMMER, LOTS OF THINGS TO DO, PLACES TO GO, AND LOTS OF "PROJECTS" TO DO, AS YOU ALWAYS SAID. IT SEEMS FUNNY NOT HELPING YOU WITH ALL THOSE PROJECTS ANYMORE. I LEARNED A LOT FROM YOU, WHICH I USED TO PAINT AND REPAIR OUR FRONT PORCH THESE PAST TWO WEEKS. IT WAS FUN TO WORK ON ALL THOSE LITTLE THINGS THAT NEEDED FIXING, AND I HAVE LEARNED A LOT OF STUFF. I THANK YOU FOR TEACHING ME ALL THOSE THINGS WHILE WE WORKED TOGETHER ON THE PROJECTS. I'LL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU FOR THAT. I'LL WRITE TO YOU AGAIN LATER.
