I am sorry to know Mr. Albert Victor has passed on. My condolences to his family and friends, and to Miss Tess who as he told me,was his right hand on the site, and one he could not do without. I am so sorry for your loss. |

God's blessings to you Tess. You've been the rock of strength that has held us all together in such a dark time. It's a dark time for all of us right now...But We must pull together to keep the light burning...the light that Albert created.

Tess I know though you knew Albert might leave us it was still a shock and by now the shock is beginning to wear off and the grief is so hard to bear. Sending you my thanks for all you have done for all of us and a hug across the miles. Blessings to you Sweet Friend and to all who love and mourn Albert. La Belle Rouge "Poetess Of The Heart"

Good Morning Tess, I am so sorry that I am so late getting here to tell you personally how very deeply saddened I am at the passing of our beloved Albert. I know your heart is broken, and I wish there was a true way to put the pieces back together again. You are in my heart and prayers always. I thank you for all you have done, throughout Albert's illness to keep us updated on his progress, in both times of hope and despair. Why is it, that when words are of such importance, they can never truly express what you want to say? I will soon be leaving something in memorial for Albert as well. Just as of yet, the words will not come. Believe me, it is not because of lack of caring. Albert gave to all of us such a precious gift, when he brought Starlite to us. You, yourself, have given so much of yourself, to help it remain a family. Love to you Tess. Lesa Lesa Gay Aspiring Angel

I know that I am late in getting here, and for that I am truly sorry. Albert was a mentor to me, and gave us all a great place to meet others and share our passions, and he will truly be missed. He was one of a kind. Tess - thank you so much for keeping us informed of everything, and for being the rock you are - we appreciate it! And to all others who were close to Albert, take comfort from the good memories you shared and the impact you had on each other's lives.

Hi Tess, I just heard the news via Melissa's poem. My heart feels like it's made of lead, Albert was such an all-round fine man, fair-minded and liberal-thinking, brave and resolute in keeping Starlite open and flourishing. I know this has been a hard hard time for you and you have met the challenge SO well as evidenced by the comments and good wishes of so many here. I would like to add my offer of any help that I can possibly give. (((Sigh))) Albert was a true inspiration - I know we will all miss him so very very much... |

The extension of love and friendship on this site is overflowing and I am so deeply moved by the many heartfelt tributes and words of endearing love and gratitude I am reading. Albert has left his mark not only on this site but on the world. I am so touched by Tess's humbleness. And thank ful that Albert had his family close by through this journey. May God bless his brother for caring so well for him as the days grew to be even more of a struggle. And now I pray that this family finds peace in knowing that Albert if free of all pain and suffering. ~Jacie~ ~Jacie Stralko Duca~ JMDUCA@webtv.net

I am so glad Albert had his brother and sister inlaw to care for him. If they are anything like Albert...he was in very good hands.

You are so incredibly sweet Tess. We all love and admire you so much. I am so glad that you had the opportunity to work with Albert. To get to know him so well and love him like a brother. I am also thankful that his brother and sister-in law were so good to him. I know how hard that is and I know how hard the 'letting go' is also. But we can rest in the peace that we know Albert is in now. I would bet that he is even trying to pick out just the right 'spot' for Heaven's Starlite Cafe ~ He loved the written word and that is how we are trying now to honor him - and you as well. God bless you dear. With love ~ Mary Anne ^j^ "The greater your spirit grows, the less any of the stuff of the world will matter." AirJesus.Com

Tess Albert is one man I know none of us will ever forget as is with you. What the two of you offered to each of us here is beyond anything I think any of us could have ever hope for. I have made so so many awesome "life time" friends here and I pray for each to be comforted during this time of such deep grief for us all. My offer stands if there is anything I can do to help anyone on here all you have to do is ask.

Deepest thanks to all of you for the e-mails, cards, and messages. Thank you also for the beautiful poetry so many are posting in Albert's honor. I promise that I will read each and every one. I will also reply to all of the e-mails I have been sent. So many have thanked me for all that I did for Albert, but I do have to express to you that it was Albert's brother who did the most. He took such good care of Albert these last few months. I truly admire him for the love he showed Albert and the personal sacrifice that he and his wife endured to make sure Albert was taken care of and loved. Reach out to one another and extend your hands in comfort and love. May God be with each and every one of you. And may the bonds of friendship that Albert helped create at this site live forever. My best to all of you. Love, Tess |

Dear Tess, May God be with you in this time of grief. May he be with all of us here and we will miss Albert deeply...no words can say but it is in all of our hearts so if he gets points for being loved then he is definitely in heaven and we all need to be happy for him and try not to be sad for ourselves even tho I can't keep my eyes dry....God be with all of us as he welcomes Albert into his kingdom where he can watch over all of us....Pam http://www.postpoems.com/members/pamschwetz http://www.myspace.com/pamschwetz http://www.geocities.com/pamschwetz/pamschwetz.html

Tess: When you look up at that old sky tonight,the brighest star will be Albert's, for he will shine for you forever, for the love you had given him in his lifetime and the way you carried on while he was dying. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the way you have handled this difficult time.. Also I would remind you.. He sleeps a quiet sleep..To waken in the dawn...And see the beauty of God's land.. Where he has gone... Please accept my sincere condolences on your huge loss. |
