Hi Jeff - You started doing my hair when you were at the School of Mario Tricoci in Glendale Heights, IL. Then when you were moving on to something else - your father was doing my hair in Schaumburg, IL. When my daughter, Irene, was a toddler he did her first haircut. I remember your father for his kindness, thoughtfulness, and conversations about family and friends. I am very sorry to hear of his passing. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

So sad to hear about Al's passing, I've known you guys my whole life and want to go back to when we were little kids on Marcy and Al's waterbed watching The Grinch Stole Christmas or playing Al's drums. So many good memories, The dimple on my cheek that I carry today is from falling after Chasing Jeff into the screen door, and it's good as I later found out that the ladies like dimples, Here's to you Al!!!! Love always Jim Carnivele family
