I have known Al for many years and always enjoyed going to the Lakeville Inn. I always found him to be very friendly, and he always made me feel welcomed by coming over and chatting about old friends/old times/good times. Carol and Lauren: My heartfelt sympathies goes out to both of you at this most difficult time. Your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. I will place Albert's name in the Mass Intention Book at Mt. Carmel Church.

Carol and Lauren, I was sadden to read of the loss of Albert. I had been going to the Lakeville Inn for many years, and have fond memories of Albert, the Inn, and your family. I still remember Lauren as a little girl sitting on the barstool. I will keep Albert in my prayers.

I remember all the dinners at the Lakeville over the years. Albert was gracious, kind and always came to the table to talk to people. He was a true gentleman who made the evening enjoyable and you always felt good for having gone to the Lakeville. I pray for him and extend my condolences to Carol and his daughter. Sandy Forshee

Albert and I were best friends. I last say Albert in May of 2008. Lauren went up to see if Alber could see my wife and I. We hugged and I said we are still here and that is when he told me about the cancer and that it had spread to his liver. I cried and cried after he told me and I sent him a card with a note inside after I returned to Minnesota. We both were born in NYNY, went to school and graduated, played tennis, bowling and footbal together. I played cards with Albert and his father. I worked in the kitchen a Lakeville Inn with Jack Church. Rose always liked me and I always tried to please her. She was a great cook. Albert and I went our separate ways after high school. I went to college in Wisconsin and Albert I think went to OCC for a while. However, everytime I came to Goshen to see my mother or sister we would stop and see Albert. My heart goes out to his wife Carol and Lauren. Lauren, Albert was always so proud of you. Love Ed

Albert was as nice a person as was ever born on this Earth. He was gracious, kind, generous, caring, honest, sincere, and all the other positive adjectives found in the English language. Farewell to a good man. Cousin John Ruffini
