Albert was genuinely one the most kind hearted loving people I've ever met. Albert was my barber and friend for the past two years. He truly loved his customers, friends, and family. There was never a dull moment when you were with him. He had the deepest affinity for people and when you were with him it warmed your heart and brightened your day. My deepest compassion goes out to the family, I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm so thankful to have shared time with this wonderful man and I can't wait to see him again in paradise.

Catherine, please accept my deepest condolences in the loss of your brother.  Albert was always kind and gentle to people.  He will be missed very much. Be comforted in the fact that Albert believed in Jesus Christ as his Savior and he is with Him right now. He is happy in the presence of God.

Albert was a great guy! He was so even-tempered, in all the years I worked with him I don't remember him ever raising his voice. He was so talented and was such a good friend. And he laughed a lot. May he rest in peace and may his family know we are all praying for them. Albert, I will miss you.

The sudden loss of Albert has left me stunned and heartbroken!  He has cut my hair for over 18 years, and I always enjoyed our chats as I sat in his chair.  He will be truly missed, and I wish peace and comfort to his family.

Albert was a dear friend that I will miss very much. Although it's been years since I last saw him, I know that I could walk into his salon and get a hug like no time has passed at all. He taught me a lot about art and life.
I'll miss you my friend.

Without Albert, there is a hole in the world.  Albert started cutting my hair about 25 years ago and since has done first haircuts for our children all the way to the haircut for our daughter's bridal portraits and wedding.  He was there for us for everything.  He saw us through the good and the bad.  At times he gave his opinion on what ever was going on, other times he was almost the therapist, but he was always our friend.  Will will miss his haircuts, but more importantly, we will miss Albert.

Albert cut my family's hair for over 20 years.  Every visit was a chance to spent time with a friend.  This sudden and unexpected loss makes us all appreciate all the more the many warm conversations we have shared over the years.  Albert was an institution in BCS and will be missed.

I can't remember who cut my hair before Albert, But going to see Albert was not a hair cut, it was a chance to visit with someone I consider my friend. I will find another person to cut my hair , but no one can ever replace Albert. I will miss him.

My prayers are for all of Albert's family and friends who are grieving with this sudden loss.  May The Lord comfort you all and may we all keep the special memories of him as treasures.

The loss of Albert is heartbreaking and I send my condolences and prayers to his family and those who were special to him.  Albert was someone I looked forward to seeing and talking with when I came to his salon.  I will miss him.
