ALEXANDER CORNAGLIA

As a child, I would walk with my grandmother to Reen's deli to "pick up a few things". I remember meeting Al and Reenee for the first time. They both smiled and made us feel welcome. Each time we walked in, Al always said hello to us by name and made us feel welcome. i'm 46 and still go to Reen's for the BEST hoagies. My sincere sympathies to Al's family.

Sending my sincerest sympathy on the loss of your father, Randi.

Jack and I are so sorry to learn of the passing of Al. For many years we served Jewish bread to our friend, Al. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family.
Sandy and Jack Lipshutz

I was saddened to learn of the passing of Al, a man who gave me and my brother our real first job in 1974. I was so excited to have worked for Al & Rene, they were like family to me. I started there making a $1.25 an hour and was living life large as sophomore at Arch Bishop Ryan H.S. Al always showed a genuine interest in his employees and taught the valuable lesson of working hard and being successful. Al and Rene ran a quality business, and I still remember working on a Saturday along with...

I am so very sorry for the loss of your loved one. Be assured that God feel your pain because he love and cares for you. May you trust in God at all times and pour out your heart before him. God is a refuge for you. He will hear your cry for help and give you comfort. (Psalms 61:1). Your family and friends have my deepest condolences.

I had honor and privilege to be hired at Reen's Deli by Al, while attending Archbishop Ryan High School in 1974. Al and his wife Irene, daughters Ellen & Lois, son-in-laws, Neil & Steve were some of the most caring and loving people I have ever met. Al ran a family business and really made all me feel like I was part of his family. He was a man of great kindness and my memories of Al and his family will never fade. Please accept my heartfelt sympathies, as words cannot express how saddened...

I was privileged to have spent 10 years as a part of the Reens family. In that time, Al taught me many business and life lessons, some of which I didn't even realize I was learning until later in life. The crew at the time I was there included Jim Tamburini and Joe Hall, with all 3 of us moving on and owning stores of our own, a direct result of what we learned from our time spent at Reens.
I cherished our 2am Christmas Eve's and the laughs we shared, along with the Atlantic city trips...

On behalf of myself and the many people from Parkwood whose lives were touched by Al....we pray he rests in peace. I was a child when he opened Reen's in the Parkwood Shopping Center and I am now over 60. I remember his kindness, humor, quickness on the register, love for his family and just what a nice man he was. My condolences to your family at this time of sorrow.
