Always appreciated Albert. He was our post man for many, many years. Once got a Christmas card delivered to us from a man from Trinidad who couldn't remember our last name. Sent to Mr. Glenn, Breslau, Canada. Albert knew we had gone to Trinidad the year before and delivered the card to us. Also knew him to be a wonderful Christian.

Albert worked with my father for many years at the butcher shop. He was a hard worker, but we all remember him as a very kind man. He always took time to talk to each of us, or to play with us on his lunch break when we were kids. Even after he retired he was always interested in having a chat and in what we were doing as adults. Our condolences to the family.
