  • Amy and family,

    We are so sorry for your loss. We have so many fond memories of Al and are so grateful for the holidays we shared together and our time with him in Barre. He was so knowledgeable in hunting and fishing. Anthony will miss those talks. Al was so accepting, fun-loving and sweet. He was great with adults and children alike. You had a gem and we respect the manner in which you cared for him in his time of need. You are stand-up and we love you so much.

    Rest in Peace Uncle Al.

    Love you,

    Sandy and Anthony

  • My Father and Al were best friends. So many childhood memories include a story about Al and my Dad during their time at the Post Office. We didn’t know about the service today, so we at least wanted to pay our respects here in the guestbook. On behalf of my Father James Chase, my late Mother Lerlene Wright, my Sister Joyelle Wright-Gordon and my Brother James Wright-Chase, we extend our deepest condolences to the entire Dell’Orfano Family. May Al’s soul rest in eternal paradise.
