To the Bannister Family
I am so sorry to hear of Albert’s passing. I met Albert through Middlesex Lodge 379, and was privileged to present him with his certificate and pin recognizing 50 years service as a Mason in 2015. Albert served as the Master of the Lodge in 1975, and he enjoyed attending our meetings, especially our annual barbeques at Fanshawe Pioneer Village. I am glad I had the chance to know him, he was a good Mason, and a fine man. May happy memories, and the love of family and friends help support you during this sad time.

Albert was a mentor and a friend. His leadership at the Township was pivotal in its post amalgamation.

Our thoughts and prayers for my colleague and Brother and his family.

Rest in Light and Love, Albert

Dear Lori and Sandi and extended Bannister family. Please accept our condolences on the passing of Albert…one of our favorite cousins. He always made the effort to say hello and give his support. My father in his final years always appreciated Albert’s visits and little gifts.

Rest In Peace dear Albert. Irene and Peter Pollock

Sandy , Brad, Ty and Syd, Lori, Doug, Emily and Paige and the Bannister Families,
My sincerest condolences on the loss of a great man. Albert was always smiling, always up for a laugh, always made time to stop and catch up and was always so very kind.
Although he was not my Uncle Albert…I always called him Uncle Albert and he always answered with a smile and a giggle. He always made me feel like family! I have many fond memories of sugar bush trips, swimming or just catching up at a uncle Gord’s. May you find peace in knowing Mary and Albert are reunited and Albert is not suffering.
May you find comfort in the many lives Albert touched, your special memories of your Dad and Poppy and know he was very proud of his family.
My thoughts are with you all
Bev, Shawn Dayman and girls.
