Great picture -- it's the Uncle Al I remember. Sorry I can't be there on such short notice, but know that I'll be thinking about all the good times I had with Uncle Al, Aunt Fran, Uncle Joe and Grandma Graz. I'll also be thinking about the good times we'll have in the future. Give my love to the family, and hope to see you all very soon -- Mark (and Kathy)

Our deepest sympathy to Liz, Nora, Dominick and the family. Al is now at peace in heaven with his beloved family. I'm sure Cousin Theresa had the spaghetti waiting for him. :) He was very special to our family, like a brother and a son to my mother. She always had a soft spot in her heart for him. Happy go lucky Albert, always with a smile on his face and stories that would make you laugh till you cry!! That's how I will remember him! You are all in our prayers! Love, Jennie and family
