Not sure what to say?

Really miss him still . Tina Franklin

I'm sorry for your loss. I have fond memories of both of your parents while I was growing up in Gresham and attending St. Henry's School. I'll remember them in my prayers.

My thoughts are with the family and especially my co-worker/friend, Cathy. Her stories about her father were always a delight and he was truly a feminist before his time by the stories she shared about his interactions with the Nuns. On this snowy day, may the family find Joy and Peace at this time of celebrating one of God's angels.

I am deeply sorry for your lost .He was an great man and friend to me .He love his children with all his heart .He would talk about how great they are .It was my privilege to care for him the last 3 years. I miss him already .He is at peace .Thank you for sharing him with me .Blessings .

He was "Grandpa Olbrich" to our family on NW Third Street for the last 28 years. Watched him take his daily walks and enjoyed many conversations with him about the history of Gresham and his family. He knew Dan's father "Kraut" as Albert called him, when he was a young man. Was always so respectful to our children and acknowledged them each time he saw them. One of a kind and will be missed on our street. Our condolences to his family.
Dan and Barb Kaufman and family

May your soul rest in eternal peace.

I had so many great times with you Albert! I will always remember the fun we had listening to jazz and all your amazing stories you shared with me. Your amazing singing voice will forever be with me. Hearing you sing different tunes in English and German always brought a smile to my face. Albert you will forever be in my heart. Rest In Peace My dear friend.
