(December 28, 1948 - August 9, 2021)
Best friend, confidant, and better half of Marlene Tucci. Loving father to Andrew Tucci, dear father-in-law to Samantha Robinson, and special dad #2 to Amanda Arsenault.
Cherished son of the late Camillo and Linda Tucci. Treasured brother of Mario Tucci (Anne), late Rinaldo Tucci, Dora Armstrong (late Bob), and Eva Lambert (Lorne).
Adored son in law of the late Reg and Pat Descoteaux, and late Bill Thompson.
Loving brother-in-law of Bill Thompson (Lina), Gordie Thompson (Doris), Dougie Thompson (Diana), Judy Thompson (Cyril), Rosemary Proulx (Albert), Connie McDonald (Steve), Lorna Descoteaux, and the late Ottorino Medaglia.
Special godfather to John Mercier, BJ Sweeney Jr, Sara Mizzi, and the late Christina Tucci.
Beloved uncle and great uncle to many nieces and nephews. Fond nephew and cousin to many.
Albert was a charismatic, dependable, and respected friend to many. He believed that the love of family and friends, not money, is the true measure of wealth. Albert was an active member of the community and would lend a hand to anyone in need. His mischievous smirk and laughs will be missed by many.
Albert was strong in his faith and did not fear death, his only regret was leaving behind his family and friends. At Albert's request there will be no funeral service. A celebration of life will take place at a later date to remember the good times and Albert's zest for life.
It is the family's wishes that any donations made in Albert's name be made to Algoma Residential Community Hospice (ARCH) (made payable to or online to).
The family would like to thank Dr. Wilson, all of the ARCH angels, Bayshore nurses, PSWs and those who played a special role in his care.
A very special thanks to Father Jerry, Anne, Rosemary and Albert, Judy, Mike Kohler, and "Chipmunk" (you know who you are) for their support and compassion during Albert's fight. Special thank you to O’Sullivan Funeral Home for their care and guidance through this time.
"When we have done all the work that we were sent to Earth to do, we are allowed to shed our body, which imprisons our soul like a cocoon encloses the future butterfly.
And when the time is right, we can let go of it. Then we will be free of pain, free of fears, and free of all worries, free as a beautiful butterfly returning home to God." ~ Elizabeth Kubler Ross
