Albert was a lifelong resident of Millbury, a retired engraver and proud Navy veteran.  He was also a longtime volunteer with the MFD, Engine 2. He was a great dad, and granddad. A hard working man who seemed to be able to fix anything, he would describe himself as a jack of all trades and master of none. He loved hunting, fishing, working in his yard or workshop and beer. Most of all he loved Doris, his sons, grandsons and great grandchildren.

A pretty good guy, he will be greatly missed.  Per his wishes a private burial will be at a future date.
