  4. Dear Jim,

    I am heart broken to hear of your Flossie’s passing. I have grown to love the both of you in the years I have cut your hair. Her Christmas Santas now will mean so much more than what they did before because I know there wont be any more. You were so very lucky to have had the love of your life for so many years, and I hope those memories will help you through this very difficult time. She was a jewel. If there is anything I can do to help you in ANY way please let me know. I will miss all the wonderful stories about your travels and your adventures.
    Your friend,
    Heidi Bowen

  5. So sorry to hear about the passing of your wife Mr. Albright. I have fond memories of the two of you attending our class(58) reunions. You were and always will be one of my favorite teachers.. May your memories of good times get you through this time of sorrow. Sincerely, Gloria Morrison Baughman

  6. My sister and I were blessed to have Mrs. Albright as our art teacher at Seventh Street Elementary school (1974-79). She really made an incredible impression in our little minds. As we see it, she planted and watered seeds in her young students minds. She freely shared her incredible talent with each of her students equally. And enriched or lives by opening up magical new ways of seeing the world within our own imaginations. Those seeds she planted in us have grown into wonderful talents of our own.

    Our hearts go out to you Mr. Albright and your family during this most difficult time. We are holding each of you in our prayers.

    With Sympathy,

    Kristina Coleman-Teifer and Brenda Coleman

  7. Jim, you have my deepest sympathies over the loss of your life’s partner, Flo. Working with you both on your retirement projects was a real joy. Sharing your many Elderhostel adventures was not only interesting, but a lasting inspiration to me. I’ve missed the company of you both since I retired. I hope the joys you shared for so many years with Flo can warm the days ahead for you. Sincerely, Joe Morgan.
