He grew up and attended school in the Zeeland area. On May 30, 1944 he married Philippine
Knoll at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Hague, North Dakota. Al farmed until moving to St.
Paul where Al worked in maintenance for the City of St. Paul. They retired and summered in
Browerville, Minnesota and in about 2016 in Cambridge, Minnesota. They wintered in Ft.
Myers, Florida for 25 years. They were members of Christ the King Catholic Church. Al
enjoyed tinkering and fixing things.

Al was kind, humble and always made you feel welcomed. My whole family loved him and enjoyed hearing his stories of his days in North Dakota and Florida. We were honored to have known him and will miss him.
