After his daily stop at the liquor store for his 1/2 pint of liquor he went to the Hutch Cafe where people bought his coffee. Milt Brinkman thought Albert would be a good subject since he had no money and had nothing else to do. Albert Camp was born October 6, 1900 in Kenmore, ND. During his working years he was employed as a farm laborer and coal miner. He enjoyed the outdoors, visiting with people and sharing glimpses of the past. He was a longtime member of Faith Lutheran Church in Hutchinson. He died September 6, 1985. |
