Nancy, I am so sorry to hear of the lost of your brother. I know you loved him very much. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Stay strong as you always are.👭
Dearest Suzanne: Bob and I are so very sorry for your loss. Al was such a wonderful man. He was one of those few people who could put a smile on your face no matter how sad you might be. I will miss his smile, his jokes, his heart and the lovely stories he would tell us on our visits back to Connecticut, especially the “Abba Abba bird”, it was my absolute favorite. We wish you peace. God be with you.
Dear Suzanne,
We offer our deepest sympathies for your tragic loss. We Orthodox Christians chant…”Everlasting Memory” and may that be so. Al and I and my brothers had many great adventures growing up together. WE had great time with a great friend. Everlasting memory.
Lauren and family,
I am so saddened to hear of your dad’s passing. He was such an amazing man and I adored him! He always had a huge smile on his face and a story to tell. We used to talk forever whether we saw him in the gas station or at the Library. And he always asked about my kids and our family, and he remembered every single detail that we told him. He was so, so sweet and so amazing. He will be forever remembered and greatly missed. Please send our love to your mom and brother. Thinking and praying for you all. Rest In Peace Mr. Tex 💙
Love,
The Torino’s
Suzannne, Lauren and Danny,
Your family was so blessed with such a caring and loving husband and father. May your many memories of your life together get you through this most difficult time. I will always remember Al with his great sense of humor. It was a privilege to know him. Prayers for comfort and peace to your beautiful family.
Suzanne and family,
I am very sorry for your loss. I will always remember Al as the life and laughter at all our family gatherings….my love and prayers to all…
Sue, I was truly saddened when Laurie told me Albert had passed away. I have many memories of times spent with Al, and then you and Al, the 1st house, the hound. We had a lot of laughs together. His sense of humor and outgoing personality made him someone very hard to forget. I am truly sorry I can’t be there to pay my last respects. You and the children are in my thoughts and my prayers at this very difficult time.
So sorry for your loss. Will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
I was so sorry to hear about Al. We were commissioned Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion at the same time. I think of him often. He was always so kind to my daughter when we came to Rite Aid for her many prescriptions or saw him in church. To her, he was always ‘Magic Trick Dude’. My thoughts and prayers.
Mts. Barry My deepest sympathy to you and your family.I am so happy that I met your dad when he came to carve pumpkins and do magic tricks.I know you are sad and I will try to help you smile
