Jesus ''Al'' Alberius Jr. CWO 4 (Ret.), was born on May 12, 1936, and peacefully went to be with the Lord on May 4, 2022, at the age of 85, in Little Rock, Arkansas.
Al was preceded in death by his parents, Jesus and Juanita Alberius; brothers, David Pacheco and Victor Rodriguez; sisters, Roz Alberius and Juanita Pacheco.

Al is survived by his loving wife of 61 years, Binnie Magness Alberius; children, Craig (Mary), Randy (Lisa), Eddie, and Brian; six grandchildren, Josh (Claire), Nate (Markie), Mackenzie (Ryan), Cameron (Sofie), Cole, and Jacob; two great grandchildren Arrow and Scotty, along with siblings, Izela Carmona, Carmen Pacheco, Louise Zapata and many extended family members.

Al began his career in the military in 1952 at the age of 16. He joined the Air Force where he was a Crew Chief during the Korean War. After returning from overseas Al was stationed at Little Rock Air Force Base. Shortly after leaving the Air Force in 1958 Al met the love of his life, Binnie. In 1959 Al joined the US Marine Corp to serve during the Vietnam War. He later joined the Army where he served in Desert Storm and rose to the rank of CWO 4 before retirement.

Al became a skilled and accomplished Marksman while serving in the military and went on to become a coach with the USA Shooting Teams and the Army Shooting Teams. He was also a NRA and Concealed Carry instructor in Arkansas. He loved teaching others the fundamentals of shooting and the importance of firearm safety.

Al was also a proud member of the Little Rock Jaycees and a 32nd Degree Mason.

Al loved visiting with people and never met a stranger.

His children and grandchildren have fond memories of his creative Christmas gifts and loved receiving his daily phone calls to wish them ''A Happy and Blessed Day.''

The world became a little less brighter when Al got sick and passed away. What a wonderful, kind and generous man he was. We will always cherish his gifts to us and will truly miss the stories he would tell. He was a proud patriot of our country. Jackson will always remember that Al taught him the right way to hold a gun. Family gatherings will just not be the same without him. Many prayers and love to all those who love Al. May he rest in eternal peace and love.

Al was so knowledgeable on so many historic matters. He loved his boys and grand children and loved to brag on them so much! He loved his wife Binnie genuinely! We still have paper money he brought back from Desert Storm to the family members. (Still waiting for the value to go up). He loved all his family and no doubt he will be missed! Rest peacefully Al.
