Dear AJ, you were part of my first theatre family - my Muhlenberg family. You always had a ready smile, a big laugh and a word of encouragement. As a freshman, you seemed larger than life, and I was in absolute awe of your voice and talent. Your place in my theatre family can never be filled. So much love to you.

I was honored to accompany AJ in the piano bars in NYC on many occasions. His talent was so strong he could silence a noisy late-night crowd in less than a minute - everyone would stop to marvel at his charisma and his unique musical gifts. He also had a wonderful sense of humor and was always a joy to be around. Rest in peace, AJ - you will be greatly missed.

Dear AJ was one of the sweetest and kindest and most talented young men I've ever known. I had the good fortune to be his teacher for a time and to work with him on stage. It was an honor. It was an absolute joy to hear him sing and to experience the humble power of his acting ability. I join all his friends and family in expressing deepest condolences on his loss.

AJ was always the one person, the one face, the one personality my husband and I looked forward to seeing when I returned to my hometown. Every Flyers/Eagles/Phillies win will make me smile just a little longer knowing AJ is celebrating it with us. My sincerest condolences to his family and friends. We will miss him dearly.

Sending condolences to AJ's family & friends. It was heartbreaking to hear of AJ's passing. We met while we were both working at Helen's piano bar on 8th Ave. in NY. It was always a pleasure to play piano for AJ when he got up to sing- he always sang with passion, from the heart. I will treasure the memory of his smile, his warm personality, his talent, and the joy he shared. And, of course, he was the world's biggest Phillies fan. Peace.

AJ was one of the nicest people I ever met, and I've met a zillion people. I had the ultimate pleasure of working with him and seeing him perform for many happy, laugh-filled years in the piano bars. His singing and performing were A+, and his friendship was golden. He was the best. He will be greatly missed.

AJ was one of the most talented, kind, funny people I have known in my life. It was a joy to share the stage with him, hang out at Civic Theatre events, and get to see him sing in NYC, when we both lived there. I am blessed to have known him. I know he will be very much missed by all the people he touched throughout his lifetime. Thank you, AJ, for sharing your talents and your heart with so many.

Rest In Peace my friend. So glad I was able to see you a few weeks ago, even if only for a beer and a shot and a quick hello. You will be missed and know that you were loved.
