Alfred was born in Leominster on June 6, 1929, son of Domenic and Maria (Lonetto) DePasquale and was a lifelong resident. He graduated from Leominster High School in 1947 and took great pride in his position as quarterback on the football team. That school spirit never wavered as he continued to cheer on the Leominster Football team, and most recently was instrumental in the planning of his 70^th class reunion.

Alfred enjoyed a long career as a grocery Store Manager and retired from Victory Supermarkets to spend more time with his beloved wife and family, and to enjoy his love of friends, gardening, ballroom dancing, playing cards, and following his local and Boston sports teams.

Alfred’s kind ways, gentle smile and sense of humor were adored by all who knew him. The greatest gift he gave to his family was his unconditional love, which we will carry in our hearts forever.

Alfred’s family would like to thank Paula Kalajian and the staff at Dr. Fraser’s Office, as well as his wonderful neighbors Santiago & Vinny.

Alfred’s funeral Mass will be held on Friday, March 1^st at 11 am in St. Anna Parish, 194 Lancaster Street, Leominster. Burial will follow in St. Leo’s Cemetery, Leominster. Per Alfred’s request there are no calling hours. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions may be made to the St. Anna Parish Maintenance Fund, 199 Lancaster Street, Leominster, MA 01453.
