-

Albert J. Salera, passed away peacefully on January 4, 2017.

Albert was born in San Francisco on August 1, 1928. He grew up in the Marina district, an only child to the parents of Vincent and Assunta Salera. Al attended the University of California where he studied law and was admitted to the State Bar of California on December 19, 1956. He retired from his profession in 1994, the same year he met the love of his life, Gloria Rovegno. He and Gloria spent the next 18 years of their lives enjoying life more than ever, whether it was travelling to new places together, cruising the high seas or a night out on the town, perhaps frequentin­g one of their favorite SF spots, such as the Silver Cloud or the Balboa.

Though most only knew Al as a shy, quiet and very reserved man, those of us who had the privilege of knowing the other side of Al, got to enjoy his quick wit, funny personalit­y, gentle demeanor, great smile and his generous heart.

We were blessed to have known him, and though Al, we will miss you, we know you are now at peace and with Gloria once again.

Family and friends are invited to attend the Committal Service on Friday, January 13th, 11:30am at Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery, Colma.
