Obituary of Albert "Ab" Neumann

(Retired – Reid Brothers Motor Sales, Arnprior) Peacefully at the Arnprior and District Memorial Hospital with loved ones by his side on Saturday afternoon, August 13th, 2016. Albert John “Ab” Neumann of Arnprior passed away following a brief illness. He was 88. Beloved and devoted husband for over 65 years (July 7th) of Coral (nee Reid). Dearly loved and respected “Dad” of Tom (Carol) of Arnprior; Paul (Christine) of Geneva, Switzerland; Brent of Winnipeg, Manitoba and Andrew (Kelly) of Johannesburg, South Africa. Caring father-in-law of Rob Bradley of Ottawa. Predeceased by his only daughter, Nancy Bradley (October 19, 2015). Cherished and proud “Grandpa/Poppa” of Kathryn Neumann; Barbara Paul (Jamie); Lisanna Neumann; Luke, Maria and Derek Neumann; Thomas Bradley (Liz); Michael, Shawn, Grace and Kyra Bradley; Isaac and Ava Neumann and “Great-Grandpa” of Edith Bradley. Predeceased by his parents: Richard and Mary (Lavertue) Neumann as well as 2 brothers: Gerald (late Marion) and Roy (late Margaret). Fondly remembered by many nieces, nephews and so many friends. A quiet and gentle man, Ab did much for the town of Arnprior. His involvement in various charitable organizations allowed him to contribute to his community and the wellbeing of its citizens. His love and passion for the game of golf that he developed later in life earned him 2 holes in one…an accomplishment he was always proud of. A truly kind man has earned his rest.
