Albert C.
Rizzo
Jan 29, 1933 — Oct 19, 2026
Mt. Washington
Albert Carmen Rizzo, 93, of Mt. Washington, passed away peacefully on Monday, October 19, 2026, surrounded by his loving family. He is survived by his cherished wife, Bobbie, children Patrick Rizzo (Leanne), Ellen Cyphers (Robert), Rosemary Boswell (Michael), Claire Rizzo and grandson John Rizzo (Avery). He was preceded in death by his parents and siblings Lou (Rita) Rizzo, Josephine Demma (John), and John Rizzo.
Al served in the Army and retired after 37 years from Equitable Gas Company.
His passions in retirement included wood-working and gardening. Many were the friends and neighbors who enjoyed tomatoes and peppers from the bounty of his backyard garden. Another favored past time of his was spending time at the beach with his family.
At home, Al was known above all for an open-door policy -- there was always a hearty welcome as well as food and drink for anyone who dropped by. He was known to all the neighbors and freely shared tools and repair advice.
Family and friends welcome on Monday, October 26, 2026 from 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm & 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm at WM. SLATER & SONS INC. (412-381-3345) 301 Virginia Ave., Mt. Washington 15211.

Entombment to follow at Calvary Cemetery.
The family wishes to express sincere thanks to the staff at Sherwood Oaks, where Al spent his final years, for their kindness, care and compassion. www.slaterfuneral.com
