I met Uncle Albert in 2004 when I found my biological Mother Alice Pellerin, who was already deceased. Uncle Albert and the whole family were so sweet to me. I would often visit him and Aunt Tibby and Uncle Dave. When they passed, I still visited Uncle Albert, sent him birthday cards, and sent him a Pecan Praline Log every Christmas which he loved. He said he hid it from his children. Too funny! Dave and I will miss you, Uncle Albert!! ♥♥

Pam, Drew, Mary, Hank, Stephen, & Michael:
Throughout Uncle Al's illness he never lost that awesome sense of humor. He truly loved & appreciated the special care from you all. He kept me updated on you, your Children,& Grandchildren. He was so proud. May your memories of him be a blessing. I know it will for me.

Grandpa, I will miss our talks. I love you very much. I am honored to be named after you.

Uncle Al was very special man and will be sorely missed. He made countless visits to Covington to see my Dad and Uncle Freddy in the months before they passed within two weeks of each other. We listened to hours of Dinapolis brother escapades, although each had their own version to be sure! I remember thinking how fortunate it was that they ended up on the North shore which allowed these gatherings. He always greeted me with a ,”Hey baby”, and I knew he was genuinely happy to see me or...

I can still Butch calling him by name, “Albert” and “That’s right baby.”
Butch and I would go shopping. We’d come home with a back seat full of stuff and Butch would say to him, “Look how much money I saved you.” He would just look up at her with a smile on his face and a look in his eye saying, Uh Huh.”

Mr. Albert was such a sweetheart. His smile lit up a room, and he was always happy. I know Ms. Ellen and the rest of your family already in Heaven welcomed him. My condolences to the family.
