Albert Lancaster Obituary
Albert retired after working 25 years at Pfizer and went on to work for the Board of Education City of New London for 15 years.
He was an avid fan of the Buffalo Bills. He had a special love for his family.
Albert leaves to cherish his memory three daughters, Lori Robinson (Keith), Shawne Lancaster (Waverly), both of New London, and Kerry Lancaster (Colten) of Groton. He is also survived by his grandsons, Jarell Brown of Ledyard, Darnell Robinson and Isaiah Walker, both of New London; his great-grandchildren, Terance Brown, Gyana Brown and Arya Robinson; as well as his cousin Malcolm Merrill; and a godchild, Tian Hooks; and longtime friend Naomi McClure. Albert was predeceased by his cherished sisters, Louise Greer, Marion Holeman and Clara Singleton; his brothers, Spencer Lancaster Sr., James Lancaster and Richard Lancaster Jr.; and a host of special nieces and nephews.
A Celebration of Life will be announced at a later time.

So sorry to hear of Butch´s passing. I was a secretary at Benny Dover (retired 22 years ago) when he was custodian. He always had a warm smile and asked how everything was. I knew if I needed something I could count on him. He was a great all-around guy. i´ll keep you all in my prayers.

Your father and/or uncle was wonderful person, he will always be remembered for his kindness and compassion.
He was part of the reason that the "Surfers drum & bugle corp" rebirth itself in NL again.
He was truly NL finest.
