We grew up living around the corner from the Scolari family on Forson Street many years ago. Mike and my brother Duane were the same age, I was two years older, we quickly became fast friends. From very early ages Al and Mary became our second set of parents. We spent as much time at Al and Mary's as we did our own home. It felt as if they considered us part of their family. A family that lasted generations.
We have so many fond memories of Al sitting in his basement...

Coach Scolari was my Babe Ruth coach in the early 1960s. I was very fond of and learned a lot about the game from him. In fact, I still play softball and senior baseball. Condolences to his family.

Alvin Scolari was one of the greatest men I have ever known.
Al's son, Mike, befriended me in junior high school, and soon thereafter I was a regular visitor to the Scolari household. Alvin and Mary Scolari had a soft spot in their hearts for young men who were in need of direction in life. They could have just raised their own kids and gravitated toward other "good" kids, but they treated me (and several other young men, most from broken homes) like another member of their...
