Albert “AKA” “Alley Cats” will be forever remembered as the soft spoken Home hardware, “Handyman”.
I spent many day helping in the bush ” Making Wood.” As Andy was in bed sleeping off, whatever we consumed the night before.
I enjoyed asking Albert about his Hair stick-ups and his reply would be ” Who wound your clock” .
Albert will be forever missed by all that knew him.
Love Earl Patterson and family
Dear “Tante”, Andy , Rosy and families…my deepest sympathies. Your husband / dad/grandfather was a special man, and will be missed.
I called him”Uncle Albert”….not by blood or marriage but through my bond of friendship with the Delaney/Kolb families. And as my patient , for over 40 years, Albert always came in with a special story,told with a chuckle and often with a bag of fresh vegetables, harvested from his enormous vegetable garden!
And could that man crochet! -” Uncle Albert” blessed me with one of his creations… the biggest “doily” you could imagine- it was at least 2 feet in diameter! (I had a round glass table on which this was proudly displayed.)
So Albert- keep those magic hands of yours busy up there- the angels will thank-you!
Love Sylvia

Our condolences to the whole family.
We have many wonderful memories of Albert over the years, a man with many talents. He was our Home Hardware man that answered many questions before googling came along.
Rest in peace Albert.
I first became acquainted with Josie when she worked at The Davis Centre and I was a new volunteer and also new to Caledon. Josie befriended me and when I began working with Caledon Meals on Wheels, Josie always promised me that when she retired, her and Albert would volunteer to deliver meals. True to her word, Josie and Albert became dedicated volunteers and continued to deliver meals for many years thereafter. They were amazing volunteers, not only providing a meal, but offering care and friendship to each and every client they visited, which also included summer treats from Albert’s ‘famous’ garden. In the spirit of true friendship, they remained friends with many of the clients even after their retirement. As to myself, I am a serious ‘doily person’, so I treasure all the doilies that Albert bestowed upon me and that are scattered throughout my home and will always bring a smile and touch my heart when they come into view. Albert and my husband Larry also bonded on many levels, but especially with their ‘fascination’ with Stormy Kromer hats which they both proudly wore. So many wonderful memories of Albert who was a gentle, beautiful man and friend who will be greatly missed. We extend our hearts and prayers to all his family.
Sympathies & prayers to Josie & family- thinking of you all @ this very difficult time. .
May he rest in eternal ☮️. Thank you Albert for helping us through your gardening tips. You are a great support whenever we need help. Albert will be missed.
Josephine and family, there are no words to ease your pain, but know that the memories and jegacy he leaves is a treasure that you will all come to appreciate. Let perpetual light shine upon him. may he rest in peace.

Family of Albert. I, Wayne McCulloch send my condolences on his passing. I am a nephew of Beryle Kolb. My mother was her sister. Back in 1973 or 74, I purchased a harvest dining room table that had been ignored for years. I started to remove the layers of dirt, polish, etc. It was a slow process. Albert heard about it and was curious. He was impressed with the details on the legs, etc on the table. He offered to help me as he generously saw I was working too slow. He finished the work on the table- it is a beautiful and functional table. I still have it.
I salute the generosity and kindness of Albert in this situation and many more. Albert cared for people.
He is added to my list of souls in my daily prayers.
Blessings, Wayne McCulloch

Thoughts of family…as fine a human being as God may create. Humble and sweet as any man could be, Albert was truly an unforgettable personality. Recognized by anyone who ever spent time in his company as a craftsman and artist.
So sorry Josephine, knowing how closely you shared your lives together for more than 64 years.
May God give the family peace in knowing Albert is creating memories and treasures in heaven.

We were saddened to learn of Albert’s passing, but heartened to know he had such a long and happy life. He was a kind and generous man who always had a smile on his face when greeting those he knew. We are sure he is resting comfortably in the arms of Jesus, with the choir of angels surrounding him.
