Albert retired from AM General in 1989 after many years of service, and he was parishioner of St. Jude Catholic Church. He was a diehard Chicago Cubs fan. Albert was a very loving father and grandfather and he was a very strong-willed man; when he made up his mind to do something, he made sure it was done.
