Sidney Albert Obituary

Sidney Albert

there was a party in heaven on October 23rd, when Papa Sid arrived to meet Jesus! Sidney Albert, age 78, of Canton, Ohio, passed away peacefully surrounded by his family at Aultman Hospital. Sid was a gentle soul who always looked for the best in people and was always willing to put others first. He loved life and loved people. He was a devoted Husband, Father and Grandpa. For over 50 years, he ran his own blind and drapery business, he would say the best part of his job was his team. He shared a love of classic cars with his son, Greg and could fix nearly anything. He loved beach vacations with his wife and took pride in cheering his family on at events. He will forever be remembered for his caring heart, positive outlook on life, and unconditional love. He was a selfless man who even in his final days would say to his loved ones, "just take care of my "Patty."

He is survived by his wife Pat Albert, his children, Greg (Christy) Albert, Christina (Rodney) Lamp, Michael (Shelly) Murphy, Mark (Pam) Murphy, and Mitchell (Peggy) Murphy. He was a proud grandfather to 14 grandchildren and 19 great grandchildren.

Although our hearts are heavy, we take comfort in knowing he is in heaven watching over us. A virtual celebration of his life will be held on November 12th, 2020. The family would like to thank all the health care professionals at Aultman Hospital for taking great care of him over the years.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to FullyEquipped, a nonprofit organization created by his grandson that partners with underfunded schools to equip kids for school, sports, and life at https://fullyequipped.co/donate/ or checks made payable to FullyEquipped mailed to 3699 Myersville Rd.

Pat, this is Ray Beal. I just heard of Sid’s passing. Sid was a g.teat friend and a most trusted employee. We had many good times together.
He always had a good joke for the employees. He will be missed by all who knew him. May he Rest In Peace in Gods loving arms.

Sid was such a wonderful friend and so much fun to be around. He was there to lift my spirits in some of my darkest times and there to celebrate some of the happiest moments in my life. I’m so happy he had such a loving wife and family and I know lots of dear friends. I will miss him dearly. I’m happy to have so many wonderful memories to cherish of him. Peace to Patty and all of his family.
