*Pittsburgh, PA*


The Patriot Guard Riders of Pennsylvania have been invited by the
family of Albert
"Al" John Stegena , a U.S. Marine Corps veteran and a Law Enforcement
Officer to stand in silent honor then escort to the National Cemetery of
the Alleghenies for the interment.

Al enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps in 1955 as an Airplane, and Jet Engine
Mechanic and was honorably discharged in 1959, receiving the Good Conduct
Medal.

Following time served in 1965, Al was hired by Pittsburgh Bureau of Police,
beginning a 39-year career in a field in which he excelled and grew to
love. Al's dedication led him to assignments on federal, state, and local
task forces apprehending violent fugitives and dangerous criminals. Al's
work with those different agencies forged many bonds and contacts with
other Officers, Agents, and Deputies which served him well and assisted in
his ability to be successful. Al spent the latter part of his career
working in Drug Enforcement and his knowledge, drive, and determination was
an inspiration to the younger Officers. Al was often the "Go To Guy" for
those young Officers who needed advice and he enjoyed mentoring them. Al
was highly respected by Supervisors, peers, Attorneys, Officers from other
Law Enforcement Agencies and those in the court system.

Al served our country and his community with honor, it's now our turn to
stand in honor for him.
