He was born in Tampa, Florida on Thursday, May 1st of 1941 to Florence Elizabeth Temples and Albert Daniel Temples. They preceded him in death. Additionally, Albert is preceded in death by his siblings Betty Jo Woods; Mary Evelyn Grainger; William "Bill" Temples; George Temples; and son-in-law William "Jeff" Fowler.

After spending his childhood and early teens in Blakely, GA, Albert and his family moved to Davenport, FL in 1957. It was shortly after that he met the love of his life, Virginia, and they married in 1958. Albert became a licensed plumbing contractor and opened his plumbing business in 1966. Over the next several decades, he created a legacy that continues to live on to this day. His legacy spans hundreds of people who have learned the trade because of him and over a dozen businesses that wouldn't exist if it weren't for Albert.
In his spare time, Albert enjoyed fishing, hunting, and a brief stint as a local wrestler. The love within his family and the time they spend together along with their faith will be the greatest legacy he leaves.
The family will receive guests on Saturday, November 23rd from 9:00 am to 11:00 am at Oak Ridge Funeral Care located at 1001 E Grace Ave, Haines City, FL 33844 and a graveside service immediately following at Forest Hill Cemetery.
