Our condolences to the Almonte Family. We are part of Fr. Al's friends from St. Anthony's Parish in Somerville - we are also a part of the Salerno - Messuri-White families, which he too was a large part of for nearly 60 years. Through the years, he was always there in happiness having celebrated many family weddings, including my own, as well as being there as a voice of comfort especially upon the passing of family members. Whenever, he got the call from either my Aunt Ann or Aunt Josie that the family needed him he dropped whatever he was doing and came from near or far. I will never forget what he has done for our family over all these years. His booming voice of comfort will always be with me. May he rest in peace and may you take comfort in all the good he has done throughout his life to assist us and many, many others. God Bless!

Father Al married my husband Al and I more than 41 years ago. He was serious when he had to be and humorous in many situations. My cousins were his neighbors when they were all growing up on Federal Hill. He wanted to become a priest since early childhood. He was a true man of the cloth and a soldier of God. Condolences to all his family.

Father Al was not only our family priest but also a family friend. He was always there when the family needed him, whether it was to assist in the celebration of several marriages in the family or when someone was sick. I'll always remember going to special masses he had for us at his church in Framingham and then having us all back at the rectory for coffee and desserts. He will be surely missed. Our condolences and prayers to his family and his many, many friends.

Father Al was indeed an advocate of Catholic Education and re-opened St. Tarcisius School after it had been closed for 10 years. He hired me as the fourth grade teacher and I thought I had died and gone to heaven. It was a great school and Father Al was a great Pastor to work for😇

When our Lord created Fr. Al, He had in mind a man who would ultimately affect and change the lives of his family, relatives, friends, acquaintances, parishioners and even strangers. He was given many gifts to share; and was chosen by God to share those gifts as a Scalabrinian missionary, parish priest, and a devoted shepherd of God. Fr. Al fulfilled God's purpose for him while on earth in an exemplary and incredible way! His personality was loving, warm, sincere, gracious, humble and genuine. His ability to share God's words was remarkable; one could not help but have stronger faith after an encounter with Fr. Al. He knew how to convey God's message in a meaningful way. He had a demeanor that made him easy to be with and a sense of humor that, although he was a priest, made him very human and easy to talk with. Our family, particularly our sister and brother-in-law, Lois and Pat Flinn, were best friends with Fr. Al for most of their lifetime. He was La Famiglia to them; someone to whom they could turn for anything . . and for which they did. Father baptized their children, performed their daughter, Kim's wedding, baptized Kim's children; was on the altar as our family lost our loved ones - always, always there . . . to console and comfort during difficult times; and he was there to celebrate, laugh and have fun at joyous events. He just was "always there"! It is so difficult to imagine and accept that he will no longer be visibly present in the future. There will be a deep, painful void. He truly was" family" . . . . He was the "go to" person in ways that only he could be and only each ways each one of us know.

We extend to AnnMarie, Dennis and the entire family of Fr. Al our warmest thoughts and heartfelt sympathy. May you find comfort in knowing that Father would tell you and all of us: "Although I am no longer physically here, I remain forever in your memories and deep within your hearts." May our Lord hold Fr. Al closely in His loving arms and give his family, loved ones, and friends the strength and courage to endure the difficult days and months that follow. Father Al is already an angel in Heaven as he was every day he lived on this Earth! Love and Peace to all. Carmen and Carol Quintiliani, Watertown, Massachusetts

I am very sorry to all who are affected by this loss. Coping with the loss of a loved one is probably one of the most difficult things to endure. Although it doesn't remove the pain or bring our loved one back to us now, the bible offers much comfort and hope that our God has given us for the future.. At 1 corinthians 15:26 Paul wrote that the last enemy death would be brought to nothing. There is much more hope and encouragement to be found in the bible. Please take care and again very sorry for you loss.

Our Condolences to Fr. Al's family. He was a good man. I will always remember what he did for my family esp. when my mom passed and he officiated at her funeral mass in St. Rocco Chuurch and had the Month Mind's mass for her at Our Lady of Grace Church. We are grateful that we got the chance to see him at a local restaurant six weeks ago. God rest his soul. We will always keep him in our prayers.

Fr. Al ~our dear and life-long friend ~ Where do we begin to tell you all you have meant to us through so many, many years? You have been a constant, shining light in our lives. You were always there for us in good times and in bad times. Now, a beautiful chapter has suddenly and sadly closed. But . . . memories are the legacy of lasting love, and nothing can ever break that bond! Thank you for sharing your beautiful family with us. We are proud and honored to be an adoptive part of the Almonte and Cardente family. You not only shared your loving family, but also shared some wonderful friends. To say that you will be missed is to say the very least. We will treasure the memories of love, support, and friendship that we have built over the years, and we will hold you forever in our hearts. Our greatest comfort comes from knowing we were a special part of a remarkable, well lived life. With love and prayers always ~ Lois and Pat

A great friend for many years while he was the pastor at St. Tarcisius Church in Framingham, MA. Father Al married Judy and I in 1969. Father Al was always a fun-loving, happy man who obviously loved a life of service to his 'flock'. We played golf many times on the courses in the Framingham area. I will always be happy remembering both Father Al, the man, and Father Al, the man of God. Rest in peace my friend.

Father Alfred was an exceptional man.. I had the pleasure of getting to know him when he married myself and my ex husband .. after my divorce Father Alfred was just the nicest person to me and helped me through some difficult times .. this past year I had grown even closer to Father Alfred and had talked to him numerous times this year even when he was sick I would call him and send him cards.. when I learned he took a turn for the worst I was devasted ... I am so sad to learn that he passed away yesterday.. I'm just devasted ... god took him home and know he's an angel looking over all of us .. he will be greatly missed by everyone's life he touched ... personally I will miss him dearly .. my sincere condolences to his entire family ..
