Albert lived all of his life in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  He was a very talented tenor vocalist and sang in the Saint Paul Cathedral, Sacred Heart, and St. John Fisher choirs for many years.  He sang at many weddings and funerals. One of the proudest moments of his life was singing a solo in St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City during a choir tour to Italy.

He worked as a house painter for many decades, mainly in Squirrel Hill, and took great pride in his craft. After he retired, he was a devoted volunteer in the Surgical Short Stay Unit at Forbes Regional Hospital.

His family would like to thank the entire Hospice Care Team at Allegheny Health Network who cared for him during the final stage of his life.
