To Al, one of the kindest, loving persons we have ever had the privilege of knowing. He never finished a conversation without saying "Love you guys"! There are too many memories to mention but we are all blessed to have known you and you are greatly missed! Love you! Bill and Glenda Bryan

My Friend Albie was one in a million. His laughter, His personality, His genuine love of life will never be forgotten. I met him through my Husband; they were best friends from childhood. He was our Best Man at our wedding and I loved him with all my heart. His stories will live on and there are many of them! I truly miss and love him forever. Rest in Peace, Albie Til we meet again... Barbara

An Irish Blessing May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sunshine warm your face, the rain fall soft upon your fields. And until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand. Our hearts are broken Albie. I will miss you forever. Love you, Mary Jane a/k/a Mrs. Baxley

Here's to you Albie/Scooter/Chili, you will NEVER be forgotten my good friend! Growing up in "Da Bronx" and being part of the "Mayflower/Dudley gang" will be a part of my life I will always cherish and a BIG part of that was you! Your sense of humor, wit, and infectious laugh touched the hearts of many, many, people. There are so many good memories it would be impossible to list them all here but a few that immediately come to mind are as follows: - The "gang" always meeting in front of your garage to decide what were the plans for that evening. - The parties at your house while your Mom and Aunt Charlotte were vacationing in Florida. - The many basketball games we played together at German Stadium during the summer. - Your ability to devise nicknames for everyone that would stick for a lifetime. - The reunions you arranged after the "gang" got older and moved away from the neighborhood. The last time we got together was 10+ years ago at one of those reunions but that (and the times we spent growing up) still seem like yesterday. May God bless you, rest in peace, and say "hello" to Jesus for me when you run into him (but, PLEASE, don't give him a nickname!) Joe Hamedl

We were so sorry to hear about the death our our lifelong friend Albie. He was one of our best friends, the man who brought a friend from the neighborhood and a friend from the club together through one of the famous neighborhood parties. He was a great athlete who could out run most people and swim better than anyone we know, especially long distances. A dear friend who will be terribly missed and we wish that we would have been told about his wake so we could show how much he was loved, respected and cared about. So sorry we didn't have a chance to say a real goodbye to you. You will always be in our hearts.

We were saddened to hear of the sudden death of our dear friend Albie. Albie was a dear friend of our family for many years and spent many holidays with us with his laughter and voice. I was glad to share our birthdays together at Hurleys Feb 26, the Saturday before his death. Al was the best! There was nothing he would not do for you. I was sad we were not given details of his wake to thank him and to say goodbye. AL, YOU ARE ALWAYS IN OUR HEARTS , CAN`T GET ENOUGH OF YOUR LOVE R.I.P.

Al -- I know you're up there in Heaven with the loved ones gone before you and your Aunt Charlotte having a good time. Sorry we didn't get to say our last good byes, my family would have come and my brother too. We always had good times when we were together many memories to remember and cherish. You will be missed. As the Billy Joel Song says: "Only the good die young." Gone but truly not forgotten. Love always, Jeannie, Sal & Kathleen

I don't think there will ever be another Albie in our lives. He touched so many people, had so many friends. Hope you are at peace. I wish we knew of your wake. You would have had a packed house!

Our hearts go out to the family and friends of Al in NY. Al opened his home to us when we were visiting from Louisiana. He and Aunt Charlotte were so hospitable.

Although it's been several years since I've seen Chili, I think of him often-he played a part in many of the most interesting times of my life. My thoughts and prayers to all his family and friends at this sad time.
