Al Desio was my Stage Movement Intructor at USC in the mid eighties.
He was always bright and cheerful, and that infectious enthusiasm was felt within and brought out the best in all of us.
Thank you for your humble, brilliant instruction Al.
God bless you and may you RIP.

Alfred and Neils' mother Agnes was my mothers sister. The last time I saw cousin Alfred was 1949 in Clyde NY and cousin Neil 1956 at our uncle Armond Renzis in Miami, Fla. Very sorry for your loss.

Louise, I am Alfreds cousin Joanna (renzi) Walker of Tennessee. I wish I had known Alfred as an adult, I just remember him when I was very young. God Bless You.

My boys and I never experienced a wonderful tap teacher like Desio. He was one of a kind...knew his stuff and knew what he could get out of you. Made you do your best. We will never forget that infectious grin...

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

ALFRED--YOU'RE GOING TO BE IN GOOD COMPANY UP THERE---GENE KELLY. FRED ASTAIRE AND GINGER ROGERS....BUT WITH A RESUME OF "WEST SIDE" "LA MANCHA" AND "FIDDLER" I THINK YOU'LL HOLD YOUR OWN. DON'T FORGET--NO ONE COULD KEEP UP WITH ANN MILLER, BUT GIVE IT YOUR BEST SHOT. I LOVE DANCERS ABOVE ALL THE OTHER ARTS. RIP.
