Burial followed in the church cemetery. Albert Walter Kilian was born on June 4, 1948 in Smithville to Walter and Mildred (Zoch) Kilian. Albert never allowed having Cerebral Palsy to slow him down.

He loved watching old Western movies. Albert always tried to stay connected with family and friends. During the 80’s he kept a CB radio strapped to his wheelchair and most recently he kept in touch through his computer by email and using Facebook. Albert was involved in an accident nearly three years ago which drastically affected his ability to be independent.
