ALBERT RUSHING
July 25, 1900
MAY 1, 1946

GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN

Additional Comments:
Albert Rushing married Gladys Harris on 18 Nov 1928 in Pike Co., AL.

Albert is the son of Joseph Johnston Rushing and Ella Melissa Spradley. He 
buried near his mother and father. Gladys is buried in near Ward, AL.

When Albert was a fireman for the city of Troy, AL, his wife Gladys and his 
sister Foye would hear the Troy Fire Department's sirens sound off and they 
would follow the fire trucks to watch the men put out the fire.

On April 14, 1996, Foy Rushing Black said that Albert had a job at Gunter 
Field AFB. Foye Rushing informed me that Albert died of a serious liver 
disease in the St. Margaret’s Hospital, Montgomery, AL.

RUSHING, Albert, 45, a resident of Montgomery for six years, died at a local 
hospital at 1 p. m. Wednesday following an extended illness.  Surviving are 
the widow, Mrs. Gladys Harris Rushing; parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Rushing, 
Montgomery; two sisters, Mrs. Veron Ivey and Mrs. S. Earl Sellers, both of 
Montgomery; one brother Duard M. Rushing, Apalachicola, Fla. The funeral was 
held from McGhee Funeral Home at Troy, Ala., today at 3 p. m. with the Rev. 
Sam Jones officiating.  Burial was in local cemetery at Troy.  Active 
pallbearers were firemen for Gunter Field Fire Department.  Alabama Journal, 2 
May 1946.
