Mr. Albert L. Fogel

Born in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Al lived a satisfying life as a father, grandfather, great-grandfather, pet owner, and tinkerer.

Al proudly served in the Marine Corps Reserve from 1954 to 1979, achieving the rank of Gunnery Sergeant. He was a dedicated and honorable serviceman. During this time, he graduated from Purdue University in 1961 and began his career as an engineer.

While working at Parkview Hospital, he met the love of his life, Catherine M. Fogel. After marrying, they moved around the midwest before settling in Sussex, Wisconsin. Al worked throughout the Milwaukee area as a Facility Engineer and was most proud of the many accomplishments during his time working for Waukesha County as the Director of Facilities.

In addition to his professional duties, Al was committed to his community, serving as the President of the Richmond School Board from 1984 to 1988. His dedication to education and community service left a lasting impression on many.

In his retirement Al enjoyed fixing and building things, finding anyway to entertain his restless spirit. He was well known for his love of animals, especially his late dog Napoleon and his cat Shadow, and for taking in many of the neighborhood stray cats. Al will be remembered for his unwavering dedication to his family, his service to his country, and his contributions to his community. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.

He was preceded in death by his son, Allen L. Fogel and his grandson, Tatum Harsh.

Beloved husband of 51 years to Catherine M. Fogel.
