Al took me under his wing during the year I was in the Tammies. Over the years, he would call to chat or send letters and musical gifts. He was a great friend who brought joy.

A total shock to hear of Al's passing. A close friend from kindergarten till this time. An extremely talented musician who has given so much for the preservation of ethnic music everywhere. I will truly miss him as he was like part of the family. My sincere condolences to his mom Theresa.

So sorry to hear about Al's passing. I remember many Saturday nights when my parents took us to Stangl's Tavern for polkas. Skeeter, Walt and the rest kept them dancing and returning for more. It was a great time to visit uncles and cousins. I remember Al at Central Catholic and the music class as well as the choral group. Practicing for the Christmas show and the Musical.
My prayers for Theresa and the family. We lost a great musician.

I'm shock by this loss, I just gave him a haircut at his home and he seemed to be doing so good. It's sad that somebody so known for his music was totally forgotten by his kids there's more but I'll stop there. God Bless and Rest In Peace

Al and his music were a staple in the Lehigh Valley culture where I grew up.....a huge influence in the music I learned and played in my youth and still today. I have nostalgic memories of placing his and his family's records on my Dad's juke boxes in the Austrian-American clubs and establishments throughout the region. It's hard to accept and grapple with the fact of Al's passing. My sincere condolences to his family and to his fellow musicians.

Al helped teach my father to play the button box, I remember their practice sessions in our living room back in the 70's. He passed away last year, so much polka talent has left us in the past couple decades.

Al was a good friend, and one of the finest musicians I had the privilege of performing with. After graduation from the Tammies, he would call me on my birthday no matter in the world I happened to be. He would always seem to find me. I will cherish our friendship. RIP brother.

We are sorry to hear of his passing. We enjoyed Al & Alex at the Ironworld polka fest in MN and neat to see them again in Tuscon in 2005 when we moved to the Phoenix area. Our deepest sympathy to all.

Al was my classmate, bus seatmate, and good friend during our 4 years together in the Tamburitzans. He was talented, funny, kind and reliable. We shared exciting times and trips around the USA and the world. Nothing will change the bond that came from those experiences. We only saw each other a few times after graduation, but my memories of Al during those golden years will be with me until the end of my days. God bless you Al.
