I would second those thoughts. I would have liked to have met Alberta, but never did, though I did once speak on the phone. I would dread to have to estimate the number of those she helped on the forum who were seeking genealogical advice and help over the years. This was her passion; she helped so very many and her efforts will be sorely missed. May she rest in peace after all her efforts, and I offer condolences to all her family at this sad time
 
What very sad news for all BHF Members. Alberta has always been at the forefront of BHF and she will be very much missed. Condolences to her husband and family.
RIP Alberta, +++
 
Like Mike I never met Alberta but had several "coversation" with her via messages.
She seemed a lovely lady.
So sorry to hear this news. God bless
 
Very sad news. Alberta was a valuable member of the forum and of the moderator team. She was always helpful and contributed much to BHF. She will be missed. RIP Alberta. And condolences to her family.
 
Such sad news. She sounded a lovely lady and I always had to smile when she mentioned the ‘other love of her life’ Cillian Murphy.
RIP Alberta and condolences to the family.
Lynn.
