Se. Alberto Artidiello, le agradezco profundamente su creación de Chessgames.com; he pasado días, meses, años disfrutando de la grata compañía del ajedrez en CG a pesar de yo ser un anciano que vive en soledad. Que mi agradecimiento le llegue hasta el espacio etéreo dónde Ud ha de estar, junto a Dios.
Ud ha dejado mucho beneficio en su paso por este mundo.
Descanse en Paz.
You were great chess player! my brother and mom
Adored and loved you to eternity!
Albert taught my son Adam how to play chess. He was very intelligent and soft spoken. I really admired that about him. Also he was in perfect physical condition. An adonnis. He had such a beautiful voice and movie star way of talking. It was like spending time with a handsome professor. Was deeply in love with him.
I was a teammate of Albert's on the chess team at Lane Technical High School in Chicago in the mid-1970s. Albert was a very strong player, and a really nice guy. Our team won the state championship Albert's senior year, and the year after that. Many years later I learned that he had moved to Florida, become a chess master, and co-founded the chess website chessgames.com. That website archives hundreds of thousands of chess games so that they may be played over for free by anyone in the world. It is an extremely valuable resource for many thousands of players, and serves as a memorial to Albert and his vision. My heart goes out to Albert's family and friends. He will be missed.
