He was a baseball fan, of the New York Yankees, and really enjoyed being outdoors, tending to his yard.

Al was the beloved husband of Mary B. (Breen) Weismann. Devoted father of Rose Thompson and her husband George of Reading, Patricia Ryan and her husband James of Arlington, Richard Weismann and his wife Ann of Woburn, Donald Weismann and his wife Patricia of Boxborough, and Carol Barring of California.
