McKinley O'Neal **The casket will be placed in the church one hour before the service. Mr. Albright departed this life on April 2, 2011 at his home in Williston, SC. Osceola was the son of the late Willie Albright and Sallie Hogg Albright and was born on February 13, 1926. Osceola was educated in the public Schools of Elko and graduated from Macedonia High School. Upon completing high school, he matriculated at South Carolina Area Trade School, Denmark, SC (Denmark Technical College). After completing his education at South Carolina Area Trade in Denmark, South Carolina on January 17, 1955, he enlisted in the U.S. Army and served his country courageously, with pride, dignity, and patriotism during World War II and the Korean Conflict. Upon completing his military duties, Osceola resided in New Jersey for 40 years and worked as a packaging operator with Olin Hunt Specialty Inc. for 30 years before retiring. Having been born with an entrepreneurial desire, he established his own shoe repair business and operated it successfully for 6 years in Denmark, SC. Never forgetting his Christian faith, Osceola returned to Williston and reunited himself with the family church, St. Peter Baptist Church of Elko, SC. There, he served in numerous capacities after joining the church in July 1938. Cherishing his precious memories are: one son, James Albright, Jersey City, New Jersey; a daughter, Jonetta Albright of Jersey City, New Jersey; a sister, Margaret Bradley of Asberry, New Jersey; one grandaughter, Niki Albright; a niece reared as a daughter, Brenda Pryer of Elko, South Carolina; and a host of other loving relatives and friends. The family extends their appreciation to his caregivers, Betty Dicks and Regina Pryer.
