Linda & Family,
We are so sorry for your loss. Al was such a nice guy. I remember how he laughed during the cousins' reunions, and Marie would always joke about his name being "HON" not Al. They were good times and I know you have many more great memories together. My Dad enjoyed talking to Al about hunting, good food, and Italy. I'm sure he & my mom are in heaven smiling down on us & someday we'll all be together again. Al will never be forgotten and he and you will always be in our prayers.

Linda, you don't know me, but I spoke to Al quite often on the phone about our deliveries he did for me. He was one of the nicest guys I have ever met over the phone. I wish I could be there to pay my respects to him, except I'm in South Carolina. He will be sadly missed by all of us here.

He was one great guy - How I enjoyed those cousin softball games and bacci on the lawn (Al never minded that I constantly broke the rules). I still maintain though that Al had something to do with our captain and pitcher (Cousin Marie) getting her rib broken by that line drive off Pat Torr's bat in Cousin's Reunion III.

Linda, you still have a good team behind you and the memories of your time together with Al will sustain you.
My heart felt sympathies.
Love Cousin's Phil and Anne.

Mrs. Linda Posta,Family
Please accept my sincere condolence. Your husband will be dearly missed by all whose lives he touched. He was very proud of his family. He was clearly first and foremost a family man. A course, his second passion was A Posta Transfer Inc.. Those of us in the freight forwarding business who came to know and respect him, will miss him
and feel the void that this exuberant man leaves behind.

May your husband's name and memory always be a blessing to you and your family.

Dear Linda,
This has come as a great shock. I am rendered speechless. I spent quite a few hours trying to think of exactly what message I wanted to convey. Please know that I think you were Al's greatest asset and most loving and devoted wife. You were undoubtedly the best wife in the world to him. I know he loved you deeply, he told me so. You were and still are wonderful to his sons, I know they will be there for you, as you were for them. Again, my heart is breaking for you. I know you have a large support system, but know if there is anything I can possibly do, just ask. God bless you and keep you strong.
Most Sincerely, Dawn Iannuzzi
