9. Albert 15/Feb./1920-22/Sept./2002

Albert was a carpenter and then worked for Hormels in Austin, Mn. for 40 years in the slaughterhouse. He was an avid fisherman and built his own boat carrier and camping trailer. His wife Violet worked for Caseys in Hayfield, Mn. it was also a shrubbery business. She also worked at the Hayfield, Mn, meat locker for several years. In her later years she collected water bills for the city of Waltham, Mn. Al was a tall lanky type of person. He had a quick temper but also had a quick laugh to match. He played the guitar at all of our get togethers. He died very shortly after his wife and I personally feel it had something to do with her loss. He was very close to his family.
