As a kid, Albert enjoyed taking photos and developing the pictures in his own dark room. Family will remember him as “Skip”. One of the best attributes about Albert was his concern for others; he was a loyal person who gained many friends. Al worked in the construction and carpentry industry for Brunswick Bowling for many years, traveling around the world building and setting up bowling alleys. He had a very strong work ethic. He enjoyed boating and fishing.
Albert’s negotiating skills provided him an opportunity to keep a steady stream of classic, muscle cars and motorcycles. He enjoyed sharing his knowledge with his two sons by teaching them how to take care of cars.
