My prayers and thoughts are with you at this difficult time. Although I didn't know Albert well, on the several occasions that I met with him over the years, I came to realize his great kindness and compassion towards his friends and family. I remember he always had a smile on his face which brought joy to those around him. My deepest sympathies are with the family.
May God comfort and bless you.

Dear Mrs. Keim and family,
Thank you wonder people for being friends over many, many years. First I had Mrs.Dolly Keim to miss, and now it's her son. These were 2 of the nicest people around, plus the rest of the family. Loving and nice must run in the family. Mr. Keim had the heart of Jesus in him, and is with him now for all of Eternity. We'll all see him some day soon.
May God bless you all --- and keep looking up !!!
