To the Chmela family:

On behalf of the Hamlin family, I wish to express our most sincere condolences. Albert was the "left brained" member of a very "right brained" household. Always calm and in control, but never distant or aloof, and always connected to family and friends in his quiet but compassionate way.

I will never forget you, Albert.

Sincerely,

Joseph Kitrosser

To the Chmela Family,
Our love and sympathy. Albert’s life is remarkable. As a carpenter, he shares a place with other great carpenters. We’ll miss his subtle humor and gentle ways.
