ALBRECHT, William “Bill”-With great sadness, the family announces the sudden unexpected passing of Bill, at home, with his wife Anne at his side on Sunday, November 7, 2021, in his 90th year. Precious and loving husband of Anne Fowler. He was predeceased by his beloved wife Erma Roes (2016). Loving father of Lorraine Guenther (Roy), Sharon McKay (David), Marlene Fisher (Dennis), Bruce (Ramona), Brian (Sandi) and stepfather of Peter Fowler. Dear grandfather of 10 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren. He will be missed by his sister Ruby Roth and his brother’s in-law and sister’s in-law; Clarence Poole, John and Emmaline Roes, Ivan and Reta Roes, Norm and Sharon Roes, Jane and Joseph Stern and Heather and Paul Adelman. Predeceased by his parents Jacob Albrecht and Lydia Jantzi, son in law Bruno Gliedt (1973), sisters and their spouses; Edna and Steve Gerber, Erma and Nelson Ropp, Eileen and Lloyd Brenneman, Elton Roth, sister’s in-law Ethel Poole and Eleanor Roes. Bill had retired from farming in Crosshill, driving school bus and as a milk truck driver for Millbank Cheese and Butter. A remarkable man with a fierce loyalty to his family and friends. Unique and mischievous, he made many laugh at his jokes and pranks over the years. He loved life, so much and found much joy in planning each and every day. We sincerely thank the Paramedics, Firemen and Police for their efforts and support. As an expression of sympathy, please do not send flowers, but rather give to St. Mary’s Hospital Foundation, Cardiac Care or to a charity of your choice. Our Bill is now resting forever, safely in the arms of God. Friends may call at the Futher-Franklin Funeral Home, 1172 Henry Street, Wellesley on Wednesday from 2-4 & 7-9 p.m. A private family interment will take place at Rush’s Cemetery.
