Albany: Groundbreaking for new Albertson Memorial Library

Groundsbreaking has been completed for the new Albany library, named the Albertson Memorial Library after the late Wayne Albertson Sr. Wayne Jr., a well known auctioner and Jan his wife, a well knows realtor. Members of the Albertson family were in attendance as well as much of the Albany community.

The Observer knew Wayne Albertson Sr. well since his home was purchased from Wayne Sr. and Geneva Heffel in 1990. For many years, the front door had the letter A on it in honor of the Albertson legacy. Once he had passed on, I felt it was o.k. to replace it.

The Observer joins all in Albany in their celebration of the groundsbreaking and looks forward to covering the grand opening in December.
