Albert faithfully attended Holy Family Parish Church every Sunday, until his health prevented him from attending, at that time Serafina Lombardi visited him at home on Sunday’s and read scripture and gave him communion.

He will be remembered for his strong work ethic and his willingness to help anyone in need—neighbors, family, or friends. Albert was always available, always ready to lend a hand. He was a jokester with a big heart, a silly dancer, and someone who enjoyed watching westerns and the Andy Griffin show, as well as listening to the radio. He enjoyed taking his grandchildren outside to cut weeds whenever they came to visit.

Albert will be deeply missed by many, he is now in the hands of the Lord, reunited with his loved ones who welcomed him with open arms.
