Then, I didn\u2019t know much about him until the zoom call the Washington affiliate had back in 2021.

Albert was a friend, a kind person and a part of our NFB of Washington history. I met him when I first joined the Federation in 1981. We worked together in the NFB and shared many meals and laughs back in the day. Albert served as Secretary of our affiliate from the early 80s through the mid 90s. He attended the piano tuning school in Vancouver and had a piano tuning business for many years. He lived in different parts of Washington at various times and participated in the Federation at many levels. After marrying his wife, Jeri, he moved with her to North Carolina. He stayed on our NFB of Washington listserv and occasionally posted a message. He was diagnosed with Parkinson\u2019s disease several years ago.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I will definitely miss Al\u2019s kind heart and quick wit.
