Albert was born in Emo, raised in Onigaming First Nation. He lived in Kenora until his Creator called him home.

He was a respected elder and healer. He would travel great distances to help families and friends with spirited ceremonies. He frequently travelled to the Pas, Pukatawagan, Manitoba.

He was a humble man and would be remembered by his unique laugh, Albert will always be remembered as a man who would go out of his way to help family and friends in need. He was always helping others and never asking for anything in return.

He also enjoyed sitting at the casinos with his buddies. During his early years living in Onigaming, he enjoyed fishing and also was a guide for Black Bear Camp. He also enjoyed playing hockey as a goalie.

Albert was also well known mechanic within the community and was more than willing to help anyone who needed his expertise.
