Albert “Al” Larson

July 5, 1936 — September 16, 2019

Albert Edwin Larson, 83, Fargo, ND, died September 16, 2019, at Bethany on University.

Al was born July 5, 1936, in Aberdeen, SD, to Albert and Nellie (Werner) Larson.  He grew up and attended school in Aberdeen.  In 1955 he enlisted in the United States Air Force where he served 4 years.  Al had special memories of the time he served in Spain.  In 1963 he moved to Fargo where he worked for several companies over the years, including Star Oil and the Horner Waldorf box factory from which he retired in 1999. After retirement, he enjoyed working part-time at The Bowler in Fargo.

Al was united in marriage to Donna Kuska on July 7, 1972 in Adrian, ND, and they had one daughter, Jennifer. Family was most important to Al, and he loved spending time with them.  He enjoyed horses and made many special memories going to horse shows with Jennifer.  Always a patient and loving grandfather, he taught Patrick how to fish and loved watching old T.V. shows with Amanda. His great-granddaughter, Elyn, had a special place in his heart.  Al also enjoyed visiting with people and looked forward to having coffee with his co-workers the last Wednesday of every month.

Al is survived by his loving wife, Donna, Fargo; daughter, Jennifer (Brad) Lee, Dilworth, MN; grandchildren, Patrick (Cassi) Lee and Amanda Lee; great-granddaughter, Elyn Lee; brothers, Eugene Larson, Fargo and Ramon (Tracy) Larson,  West Fargo; sister Darlene (Eldon) Wanna, Aberdeen; sisters-in-law Diane (Don) McCabe and Denice Porter; brother-in-law Lynn Kuska, and many nieces and nephews.  He was preceded in death by his parents; in-laws Alfred and Roiene Kuska and brother-in-law Dennis Kuska.

The family extends a special thank you to the staff of CHI Hospice and Bethany on University for the exceptional love and care they provided to Al.

A memorial service will be held Friday, September 20, 2019, at 3:00 P.M., with visitation for one hour before the service, at Wright Funeral Home in Moorhead.  Burial will take place at the Fargo National Cemetery.
