KAPHENGST, Albert - (February 9, 1927 – June 8, 2021) -
Albert certainly had a life well lived. He especially enjoyed working in the garden digging up plants, moving rocks, and pruning trees, in his ‘official’ gardening outfit of short shorts, a bandana, and his Road King wagon.
When not gardening, Albert spent many hours corresponding to people across the world and listening to classical music. He enjoyed the arts and was himself artistic, turning his hand to wood working, painting, and writing (a novella, “The Old Shoes,” and poetry).
