Hello, my name is Louis Albert.
I use this Web Page to communicate with the world. In May 1995 I had a severe stroke leaving me with "Fluent" Aphasia. Because of the stroke and the resulting aphasia I have trouble reading, WRITING and understanding.. Between Dragon Systems, Inc. and WordPerfect I am almost able to communicate in writing! I have always enjoyed and used photography. I hope my "pages" are both enjoyable and information. 

In Memoriam: Louis H. Albert (1947-2006)

Louis H. Albert, 58, passed away on February 14, 2006.

Born in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, Louis was recognized early for his academic brilliance as a First Merit Scholar at age 16. A longtime resident of Akron, Ohio, he was a passionate educator and innovator. Louis founded F/Stop Camera Corp. and served as a professor at both Kent State University and the University of Akron. He also gave back to the community as a Summit County Deputy Sheriff, consultant, and amateur radio operator.

Louis was the beloved husband of Margaret for 38 years and the devoted father of Morton (Jeanine) of Akron and Byron of Baltimore, Maryland. He was a cherished grandfather to Liam, Ezekiel, and Aidan. He is also survived by his mother, Ellen Wolfe, and sisters Saragene Davis, Elizabeth Cooper, Amy Frumkin, and Judy Albert.

A funeral service was held on February 16, 2006, with Rabbi Stephen Grundfast officiating. Louis was laid to rest at Sherbondy Hill Cemetery.

In lieu of other remembrances, the family suggested donations be made to Beth El Congregation or the American Diabetes Association.

Louis H. Albert's legacy continues to inspire through his contributions to education, public service, and photography.
