Alphonso was about a good a friend as anyone could have. We shared many great memories growing up in the neighborhood together. To Mrs. Raus, Tommy and Rosaria, my heart is saddened for your loss. You always welcomed me into your warm and loving home. I learned a lot about family, love, and friendship from Alphonso and you all. To Alphonso's children, whom I've never met, may the memories of your dad help to heal your heart. He will surely live there all of your days. You all are in my prayers and I pray that God will provide an extra measure of grace to help you through this most difficult loss.

You will be missed my friend. Thank you for being one of the nicest people I have had the pleasure of meeting. Very few people I see instantly being a smile to my face but you were one of them.

May the beautiful memories you have of him help you through the difficult days ahead.
Fonz...you are already dearly missed and loved. Continue guiding your family and friends from above. Your light will always shine brightly within us. Rest in peace dear friend.
With deepest sympathy and love,

The warm, endearing spirit of Alphonso was a true gift to everyone who knew him. In the short year since we met at the campground, it is evident that his genuine humor and thoughtfulness touched countless hearts. We are all mourning the tremendous loss of an exceptional man and friend. May heartfelt sympathies be extended to his cherished family and friends during this somber time.

Rouse Family,
I am so sorry to hear about Fonz’s passing. I always loved being around Fonz while growing up and loved when he would come on collection day for his paper route and would sit for hours playing games at the house. He was loved by anyone who met him and will be missed dearly by all.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers!

I am so sorry for your loss. Alphonso's passing is a huge loss for the world. He was one of the biggest hearts that would do anything for anyone. He was my 'bestest' fellow Raider fan. Everyone will miss his sense of humor and ' busting a gut '. Fly high fonz, until we meet again, keep a seat warm for me. ( Keep an eye on our Las Vegas Raiders) all my love, Colleen

I was so very sad to hear of Alphonso's passing. Him and I connected when I took my first trip to Italy many years ago and we always talked about Italy and being Italian. He was always ready to help me with my Italian and even spoke on the phone with my cousins. In 2008 when my cousin came from Italy I brought her to TRS to meet him. They talked like old friends and she was so happy to meet him. I know he has touched many lives and he will be greatly missed. My sincere condolences to his family. Ciao, mio amico!

Al, the loss of you is really hard to bear, it hardly seems believable that you are no longer here. You left us far to early before your time, however, hard as it is, I will take comfort in the thoughts and all the memories I have growing up with you for all of the 55 years as cousins and friend, and treasure all the happiness you brought to our families lives. Our family will not be the same until the day when we see your smiling face again. Never forgotten, never the same. Rest in peace. Love you always.
Yolanda
