I will remember this man of good humor, dignity and solid faith--my life is richer for having known him. Kelly and I rejoice in the knowledge that he is whole and well and at peace with the Heavenly Father because of his faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

We will always cherish the memory of Uncle Albie. His service in World War II was nothing short of outstanding but it was his service in the army of his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ that resulted in his greatest reward when Jesus looked at him and said "Well done good and faithful servant."
