Albert J. Costales, 72, died on Tuesday, July 15, 2025. Albert was born in New York City, NY on December 13, 1952, to Albert B. and Mary Costales.
Albert was an attorney for the people. He was driven by justice, rooted in compassion and always stood with those who needed a voice.
Outside of his professional life, Albert was a man of diverse passions. He had a deep love for the outdoors, particularly hunting and fishing.

Costales; sister, Lisa Costales-Hartel and her husband Thomas; and his nephews- Kurt Hartel and Eric Hartel; as well as countless individuals whose lives he touched with his kindness and unwavering support.
