Albert Pipino Jr.

Albert Pipino Jr., 77, Aston resident, Optician at Springfield Opticians, died April 27 peacefully at home surrounded by loved ones. Loving husband of Anna (nee Contino) for 55 years. Al worked in the optical field since he was 19, and as an Optician for the past 50 years. He was employed for the last 26 years by Springfield Opticians, his work family, until he fell ill in early March. "Big Al" loved spending time with his family and friends and was the life of the party. You could be sure at any wedding he would be the dance leader for the song "Shout" and would always "get lower now" to the floor. His motto was God, then family, then friends. Al loved taking long walks around the track, reclining in the sun with a good cigar, taking leisurely rides in his blue convertible, and spending vacations with his family in Ocean City, NJ. He is predeceased by his mother Anna (Pastorino), father Albert Sr., and sister Rita D'Antuono and her husband Joe. He is survived by his wife Anna, sons Michael (Beth) and Stephen, and daughter Nicole Simpson (John); his grandchildren Zachary, Chelsea, Reese, Jake, Ryan, AJ, Sam, Lili, and Ava; brother Tom (Betty), sister Sandy Riggio (Joe); sister-in-law Tina Goldberg (Bob), as well as many loving nieces, nephews, and friends. He also leaves behind his Springfield Opticians family.
