East Boston to say farewell to the Great One

The streets around East Boston High School are already marked "No Parking" for tomorrow's wake for Anthony Albano, a longtime neighborhood figure and activist, who died Thursday.
Albano, nicknamed "The Great One," will be waked between 3 and 7 p.m. in the auditorium of the high school where he spent so much time rooting on its sports teams.

A truly great and community minded man
I'm very grateful for the opportunity to have worked with such a great organizer and neighborhood leader. Mr. Albano will be remembered as someone who cared enough to work tirelessly to make Boston an even better place. He leaves behind legions of civic-minded people who will always be guided in part by the wisdom and experience that Anthony the Great selflessly shared.
The great one
He truly was THE GREAT ONE he brought the best out of every one he encountered then smiled!
God Bless,God Rest
Charlie ( A fan of the GREAT ONE)
