Uncle Al, I have so many memories of such a great man. When he took a bunch of us fishing when we were just kids, to all the magic tricks and jokes he would tell everyone. I'll never forget he would always make us laugh. God bless Uncle Al, you will truly be missed by the world. You will continue what makes you so special, in heaven. I am sure my dad was there to greet you when you were called from us. My father thought the world of my Uncle Al. Two funniest people you would ever want to know. I think if my father was to tell us today, he would say,"Al was my mentor". I know he took some of Uncle Al's bits for a fact. The one where he would take something from your house as he was leaving and saying good bye. Like a picture off your wall, as if you wouldn't notice. I think that was Uncle Al's bit. The last time I talked to him, he made it known that he was proud of me, and that he loved me. I love you to Uncle Al. You'll never be forgotten!!! Someday we'll all be together. PS, Aunt Lu, Barbara, Michele, and Lisa. These days without Uncle Al I know are very tough. It does get easier. One day at a time is how I live my life now. There isn't a day that goes by, that I don't think of my dad at least 50 times. I miss him so much and I try to live everyday with his memory in my heart. You have a memory that was God given. He gave you Albert Mercoli. The greatest memory of all. Now he's you're angel looking after you. We were all blessed to have known him. I will include all of you in my prayers. I love you all. Call me if you need to talk. Love, Eddie
