Albert “Al” Henry Oliver, 90, of North Tower Road, Franklin Township, Fombell passed away peacefully, on October 22, 2020, at Penfield Place in Penfield NY, where he spent his last few months near his beloved son Albert.
Born October 25, 1929 in Ellwood City, he was the son of the late Albert, Sr. and Alice James Oliver.

Al was an avid motorcycle rider for over 70 years logging well over a million miles traveling all around the US and Canada with his friends. He made three trips to Alaska including one above the Arctic Circle. His son Albert accompanied him on trips every summer for over thirty years. Later in life Al was seen frequently on his yellow scooter nicknamed “Tweety” often at five in the morning at McDonald’s having breakfast with his crew. When Al wasn’t riding he liked to go north to Canada with his fishing buddies, spending most of the time eating and napping in the boat.
