Alberta McGill

Alberta Jean McGill, 90, of Muscatine passed away on June 30, 2020 at Sunnybrook of Muscatine.  As one who did not always find decision making easy, Alberta was very definite about final wishes. In “not wanting to be a bother” her desire was to be cremated and her life to be celebrated with a private family graveside service at the Letts Cemetery.   In lieu of flowers, memorials have been established for First Baptist Church or Muscatine Special Olympics.  Online condolences can be viewed at www.sandhfuneralservice.com.  Snyder & Hollenbaugh Funeral & Cremation Services of Muscatine, formerly The Geo. M. Wittich-Lewis Funeral Home is caring for Alberta’s arrangements and her family.

(Brown) McGill.  Alberta graduated from Letts High School.  She was a member of and active in First Baptist Church and their Marantha Group.  She was also member of Muscatine Masquers and Muscatine Hospital Auxiliary.  Alberta loved people and will be remembered as a sweet, giving and fun loving person.
