To Jayne, Alfred 111, Tiana, Alfred 1V, and all the future Alfreds... My deepest condolences. Jayne, thank you for letting me into your lives. As your next door neighbor and friend, you and Al made me feel like family. I have fond memories of sharing great laughs and great conversations with Al. He was a wonderful and very humble man, considering his accomplishments in life. I always looked forward to having a glass of Columbia Crest Cabernet with both of you, unwinding, after a long day of staring at my ceiling. Everyone loved Al and he knew it.

Jane so sorry for your loss. Al was a gentle man and he always had you by his side. His baking of bread and desserts were the best I ever had. May he Rest In Peace. Anthony and Rose Ann Gapinski

Dear Jayne, Alfred III, Tiana, and Alfred IV, I am so sorry for your loss, and I hope that your memories will bring you comfort during this challenging time. Although I haven’t seen Uncle Al in several years, I thought of him often. Your family is a significant part of my life, and I will always consider the Santasiere Family my extended family. Uncle Al was not only my father’s lifelong friend, but he was also my Godfather, and I am honored that he was. So many special memories to share... Celebrating Christmas Eve at Millie’s and always enjoying Uncle Al’s delicious spaghetti aglio e olio around midnight. Learning how to make peach ice cream at a BBQ on Milligan Place, while curiously listening to him speak to Sandy, intrigued by what he was saying. Warm summer days at Swartswood Lake, enjoying lavish meals and listening to hilarious stories. Uncle Al’s passion for cooking and Jaynes's talent for entertaining, brought us together to enjoy life and spend time with friends and family. I will always be thankful for these times and the values it has instilled in me. May he rest in peace. With love, Jessica
