A woman of courage. A brave woman. A woman who fought for fairness. All must learn and respect her journey.

Her home should be a monumental historical site, a day named in her honor, and a street named after her as well as a school.

My condolences go out to her family and all who loved and respected her.

Thank you Albertha for all your hard work towards making a better and safer world.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

When my work day began today, I look on my telephone console, and each call I received each morning I knew for sure one of them was Alp calling, and then when we would have our usual saying to each other and there was always a fuss going on it was never a day with one. Desiree reminded me that we would even fuss at social affairs as soon as we met. We shared a happy, loving fuss. My day will never be the same here at Iberville Parish School Board. Alp I truly will miss you.

With Love and Sympathy,
