Aunt Estelle, Sandy , Angie, Jason.
I cant tell you how saddened I am of Uncle Al's passing. As you know you guys are my Wife , Kimberly's, adopted family. Uncle Al had the ability to make me laugh hysterically with a look.
I remember a specific time ,where after learning he graduated from Fitch High School, I asked him what year he graduated. His perfectly timed stone cold look had me in hysterics.

He had the ability to make me laugh with out saying a word. He's surely going to be missed.

Love you guys.

I am very proud of my cousin, Al: the life he led, his love for his family and his accomplishments. We were very close growing up, and I have fond memories of the times we enjoyed together : birthday parties, Christmas midnight mass, New Year's Eve gatherings, playing baseball in the street and in Colonel Ledyard Cemetery, among many others. I also remember the times we spent at Nonna's in Mansfield, MA, especially the piggy back fights. My brother, Bob, fell from the bumper of Uncle Orlando's car trying to get on one of our backs and broke his arm. I had not seen Al in years, and I am sorry we were not able to get together at the Fitch luncheon Vic and I attended in October 2018. I grieve with Estelle, Sandi, Angie, Jason, and Al's grandchildren, in addition to Vic and Gloria.

My heart goes out to you Estelle and you children and grandchildren. As time goes on may you find peace in your hearts to be able to go on as Al will be looking down on all of you. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this time.
