In Memorial

Rev. Oliver W. Albright, 91, or Kansas City, Missouri passed away January 21, 2009.

 

Rev. Albright was born June 10, 1917 in Skedee, Oklahoma.  He attended Seminary in Evanston, Illinois.  He served for over 50 years as a Methodist minister in the Kansas City area.  Rev. Albright loved to fly fish and refinish furniture but his true passion was expressed through his work in the church and with the youth groups he ministered.

The family suggests in lieu of flowers memorial contributions be made to the Wesley Fund at Kingswood Manor in his memory.

    Julie, I read about your dad’s passing this morning. I remember him with such fondness. I remember talking to him so much on the phone when he would call you at work. And, he was always so nice to me when I would visit them with you. He was just a delightful guy. My own father just turned 95. We feel sad at their passing or the thought of it, but we can’t regret letting them go. If your dad was like mine is, he was ready and willing to make the journey. My thoughts and prayers are with you, my old friend.
    Sandy

    Julie: Your mom and dad were “over the fence” neighbors when they lived on Palmer Pond and my family lived on Ballentine in Shawnee. They were both so caring and sweet people and were so kind to my girls (3), one’s name was Julie. I am so sorry that you have lost them both and know that you will have beautiful memories to sustain you. Marilyn Bohnert

    Julie, Coming across your father’s obituary was certainly beyond chance. I know that your father was a good man who brought strength and comfort to many. My thoughts are with you now as they were so long ago during your brief time in Iowa.
    Larry
