Albert passed away when I was too young to really understand the emotions behind what was going on, but now I feel like I am able to properly share my feelings about his impact on me. I took guitar lessons from him for about 6 years, and through those years he taught me how to work hard, practice perfectly, bring myself out of my comfort zone, and most of all, he taught me how to do one of the things I love the most. In a way, he taught me how to be a man, even when I was only 8 years old. I wouldn't be the person I am today if it wasn't for Albert. Every once and a while I wish that I could show him how far I've come with this amazing instrument. Even more so, I wish I could just tell him about my life up to this point. I feel like someone who could've have been even more of an amazing mentor was taken away from all of us too fast. He was caring, loving, and an undisputed talent when it came to music. It saddens me to realize that I'll have to wait a long time to talk to him again, but I also look forward to it.
God bless his family. The memories of him are not going to be forgotten.

I saw Albert perform at one of the local bookstores a few years ago. I wanted to take guitar lessons from him, but never got around to it. I'm sorry to hear he is gone. He was very friendly. If someone from his family can communicate with me, I would be interested in knowing what CD's of his music are available for purchase and any lesson books he may have written. My email address is [email protected].
The music community has definitely lost a jewel. I offer my condolences to his family.
