Albert was one of a kind. Sad to hear of his passing, he was such a fighter. Will think of him often and smile of his memories. May he rest in peace. Til we meet again.
I was sorry to hear that Albert had passed. I met Albert when we worked at IBIS, and although I didn’t work with him that long, he did make a lasting impression! He was an excellent story teller, and I encouraged him to write a book to share his stories with a wider audience. He was something else! I’ve been praying for him for some time, and I look forward to seeing him again.
Gwen and John, I can’t tell you how sorry I am about Albert’s passing. I remember his quick wit and laughter. Prayers for you in the days ahead.❤️❤️❤️.
