Sorry to see this. Just found it. Did not know Al had passed. Hope the family is doing well. Remember him from TWA and Home Depot. I met AL trough Bev Palma. I am sure he is in a better place, but we will all miss him.

I just heard about Al passing away the other day from a friend. I remember the days when he owned Donovan's and loved working for him. He told countless stories about when he worked at the airlines and I enjoyed every one of them. I'm very sorry to see him go and I wish his family the very best.

My deepest heartfelt sympathy to My sweet cousin Angelina and her family for their loss. I've know many a good man in my life but Al was in a league of his own. He was the most optomistic, kind, and gentle person you could ever meet. He was a devoted husband and father. It is hard to put into words the kind of man he was. He will be missed and memories of him will be cherished. Good bye old friend. Enjoy your just reward.
