Albertine graduated from Pacific Grove High School and was one of the first women to graduate from MPC. She married the love of her life, Cecil Potter, in 1949. Together they shared fifty-two amazing years raising their children as well as helping many others in the community.

As a devoted mother, she was actively involved in the activities of her thirteen children, yet still found the time to mentor many others. She was a longtime member at Saint Angela Merici Church and active at the Blind and Visually Impaired Center. Prior to her volunteer work she was employed at the Naval Postgraduate School for fifteen years as an Administrative Assistant.

Albertine is survived by her children; Frank, Cecil, Luis, Theresa, Emily, Dessa, Elizabeth, Gary, Lisa, Bruce, Tina, Mary, Joe and her extended sons Olaf Schoknecht and John Palmer.
