Our loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend, Albert H. Slama, 85, passed away peacefully surrounded by his loving wife and family on March 30, 2020.

He was born September 1, 1934 in Ogden, Utah to Alfred Thomas and Ella Bitton Slama. Married the love of his life, Mary Lou Davis on December 24, 1952 in Cleveland, Utah; their marriage was solemnized in the Manti Temple on July 18, 1964.

Albert was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served honorably in the U.S. Marine Corp. during Korea. Albert was a longtime resident of Carbon County and a retired member of the U. M. W. A. Local # 9958. He loved building, remodeling and restoring cars. Albert was an avid collector who enjoyed tinkering in his garage and doing home improvement projects for family. He was a Jack of All Trades and Master of None. Albert lived his life, and he did it his way. He was a gentleman of few words, but if he had something to say, he said it.

Albert enjoyed hunting, fishing, camping and he was delighted to share these outings with those he loved. Family was everything to Albert and he had a special place in his heart for his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Albert will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him.
