Larry J. Albert of Baltimore, Maryland, passed away Tuesday, April 20, 2021, at the age of 78.

A loving husband, father, and grandfather, Larry was the son of immigrants Hildegard (Janauschek) and John Albert and was born in New York City in December 1942. He lived most of his childhood abroad and had been a proud resident of Baltimore since 1972 (Go Ravens!).

Larry was a veteran of the U.S. Navy with the rank of Lieutenant. He served on the U.S.S. Enterprise and the U.S.S. Roosevelt during the Vietnam War as a navigation officer flying in F4 Phantoms. During his service, he received numerous honors, including the Navy Commendation Medal and Air Medal for meritorious service and achievement.

Larry attended the University of Maryland extension in Munich, Germany, and received his law degree from George Washington Law School in Washington, DC. Most of his career was spent at the Baltimore, Maryland, law firm of Niles, Barton & Wilmer before his retirement.

He was also a longtime member of Towson Presbyterian Church, where he served as both a Deacon and Elder over the past 40 years.

At the age of 72, after experiencing acute kidney failure, Larry received a kidney transplant from his daughter Kimberley. They celebrated this special event every year with a father/daughter dinner.

A lover of 60s music, an avid reader, and an occasional bridge player, he will be remembered by many for his wit and jokes (even when his kids didn’t think he was being funny); however, he will mostly be remembered as being extremely generous, thoughtful, and caring.

Larry is survived by his wife of 49 years and 11 months, Shirley F. Albert; sister, Carol Flynn and her husband Chuck Flynn; children, Christopher Albert, Kimberley Fisher, and Timothy Albert; five grandchildren, Caleb Fisher, Riley Fisher, Mason Fisher, Isabella Albert, and Corriston Albert; and his loyal grand dog Miami.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests those who would like to make a donation do so to the National Kidney Foundation (www.kidney.org) in Larry’s name.

A celebration of life will follow at a later date.
