Joan Alberg
July 27, 1931 — August 9, 2008
Joan Culver Alberg (July 27, 1931 ? August 9, 2008) was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend.
Joan was born in Lincoln, Nebraska to Vivian Porter and John D. Culver. After moving to Topeka, KS in 1943, she met the love of her life, Hank Alberg, in the 8th grade at Boswell Jr. High. Both Joan and Hank graduated from Topeka High School, class of 1949. Joan adored and was very active in the Topeka High School Historical Society & Alumnae Association. She attended KU and graduated from Washburn University in 1953. She enjoyed her association with the Delta Gamma Alumnae group as well as the Jr. League of Kansas City, MO. Joan had a special place in her heart for her loving friends in the AV Chapter of P.E.O. sisterhood.
Joan is survived by her husband of 54 years, Henry B. Alberg; her children and their spouses: Steven Alberg, Nancy & Chuck McGuire, and Sally & Charlie Watts; 8 grandchildren: Henry Alberg, Maggie McGuire, Johnny McGuire, Katy Alberg, David Watts, Steven Watts, Callie McGuire and Francie Watts; one great grandson Aidan Alberg-Koonse, and many loving cousins and friends. Nothing was more important to Joan than family and friends. We are thankful for the legacy of love she leaves in all of our hearts.
Memorial Services will be at 3pm on Tuesday, August 12th, at the United Methodist Church of the Resurrection, 13720 Roe, Leawood. Immediately following the service family and friends will gather at the church to celebrate Joan?s life. A private internment will be held in Topeka at a later date.
