He was the beloved husband of the late Jane A. (Auch) Ludwig for 64 years until her death in 2009. He was 89. Born in Philadelphia, he was the son of the late Joseph and Charlotte (Payton) Ludwig. Mr. Ludwig was a proud U.S. Army Air Force veteran, having served in the European Theatre during World War II. Al had been employed for 41 years as a tool and die maker with Standard Pressed Steel, Jenkintown, where he had developed a patent for a machine design. He was a member of the Sellersville Fire Department Fire Police for many years, serving as a lieutenant.

Albert was a long-time parishioner of St. Agnes Catholic Church, Sellersville. Mr. Ludwig enjoyed maintaining his property and working in his workshop.

Ludwig, Jr., and his wife, Lisa, all of Meshoppen, PA; Roma A. Mason, of Suffolk, VA; ten grandchildren; 15 great-grandchildren; and a sister, Charlotte, of Colorado.
