Alexander G. Forte

To the family of Al Forte, he was a kind and gentle man. My mother Ann Bell who passed away eleven years ago had worked for Al at his neckwear factory for many years. I did for a few years, but he was always so kind. May he rest in peace with his wife and family.

Uncle Alex, you were a great father and grandfather but most of all one of my favorite uncles. You heart was ten times the size of that pool you had on Pitman Downer Rd. so many fond memories, so much fun with my cousins, ( Rosie, Joanne, Chrissy and Alexis.)
You always reminded me of my Dad. A great listener, a family man, one who would always make you feel comfortable and offer the shirt off your back.
You were the last of the Forte brothers to go home with the Lord and I will...

Gramps, I never thought this day would come. You were the strongest of all. I can't tell you how much my heart bleeds to know you're gone, but know you would want us all to be strong. I will miss our trips to the racetrack and our dinners at the Dog House. You will always be in my heart and I know you are watching over all of us. Tell Grandmom we love her and we will meet again down the road. I love and miss you dearly!

Alexis, Chris, Joanne and families, no words can express what a beautiful person your dad was inside and out. He could always make you feel special in so many ways. We will always remember his cigar, hat and laugh. He will forever be missed, but not forgotten, by the people who knew and loved him. Our prayers are with you and your families always. We love you.

Dad, you have only been gone a couple of days and we miss you already. You became the glue that held our family together after mom passed away. We will miss you so much and miss all the years of being at the racetrack with you and eating lunch together. You lived to be 98 but we never imagined our life without you. It hurts so much to know that you are gone from our lives but you will always be in our hearts. We love you so much and thank you for all the beautiful memories. We will see you...

Grandpop, you were the best. Thanks you for all guidance and love throughout the years. I will forever remember our times together. From the hikes on Sunday afternoons to just sitting around and talking. Those memories will be tucked inside my heart forever. Your were an incredible man. Give a kiss to grandmom for me. I love you.
