Cyndi Rozanski Brown,
Pam, Jason, and Jeremy,
I was saddened to hear of the passing of Al. He was a very part of my life growing up as you all were. I remember him helping me ride a bike and helping me swim in the pool. And never failed to wave hello whenever he went by. He will truly be missed.
Sincerely,
Elaine McBride (Leskoske) and Family
Dear Aunt Palma, Jeremy & Jason;
It's been so long but I will never forget Uncle Al as it was always a blast spending the holidays with you all. He was a special man who was always very kind to me as protective of Rachel as he was and after the "rules with my niece" were given ;-) he always treated me like part of the family. Genuinely a true gentleman and opened up you all's home so I always felt like I belonged and without question VERY WELL FED! Lol
I'll never forget the times spent in the attic which started at a balmy 30 degrees and ended up hot from all the competition! I'd like to say I took it easy on him but the beatings I took were legitimate and I never was able to concur the attic Olympics!
My deepest sympathy for your loss and as difficult as these times are I think it's best to remember what Uncle Al would do; smile, find comfort in your wonderful family and try to focus on all the good memories.
May you find peace in knowing he is in a better place and certainly looking down smiling on you all.
Sincerely,
Jeremy DaRin
I was saddened to read of Al's passing. I worked at Upstate for many years, starting out in Physical Plant. Al would always stop to say hello with a ready smile. He was a really nice guy and I am so sorry for your loss. Mandy Trudell

Dear Family,
I don't know any of you...but I golfed with Al many times at Brooklawn Golf Course many years ago! I used to belong there, and would go by myself and always found people to golf with. Al was one of those people, and though I didn't get to know him well, he was a great person to golf with and friendly and kind. Most men don't like women on the golf course, but Al was always willing to let me play along. My prayers for all of you.
Dear Palma, Jason and Jeremy,
I was so deeply sorry to hear of Al's passing. Each time I saw him he was smiling and sincerely caring about the people around him. A joy to be around. You guys were truly blessed to share his life together.
I pray the pain you feel at this time is lessened knowing God is caring for Al and enjoying his company as we all did.
Draw strength from your relationship with Christ. He will see you through this difficult time.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
