RET BC ALBERT PETROCELLI BN*40....VIET NAM VETERAN.
I recd this from a friend today in regard to Al.......QUOTE..It is with extreme sadness that I have to inform you of the passing of Retired B.C. Al "Albie" Petrocelli that occurred this morning on Staten Island. He had been sick for the last three weeks and fought a valiant battle. Al, and his wife Ginger, lost their son Mark on 9-11. Their other Son, Al, is a Battalion Chief in Batt. 21. For everyone of us who knew Al personally and loved his positive attitude and great sense of humor, we all lost a very good loyal friend. In addition to being a Very Proud U.S. Army Combat Veteran, who served in Viet Nam, the FDNY lost a respected fire officer who worked in many of the busiest companies. Al was truly one of the 'Bravest of the Brave" .
Al's devotion to Our Lord and the Blessed Mother guarantees that he has already been welcomed into the Kingdom of Heaven.
RIP my friend. UNQUOTE...... REST IN PEACE BROTHER....THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE BOTH MILITARY (US ARMY VIETNAM ) ....PRAYERS FOR THE COMFORT OF THE FAMILIES.
