- Albert H. Eachus
Vacaville, California
Albert H. Eachus, aged 82, died peacefully in his home and with his family on June 7, 2003, in Vacaville. Albert is survived by Anna Ruth Eachus, his adored and adoring wife of 62 years, and by his six children, Pat Braziel and her husband Sam Anderson of Elk Grove, Irva Eachus and his wife Sue of Davis, and Sue Menning and her husband Bill of Rancho Cordova. He is also survived by nine grandchildren with a sixth due in September.
He was born November 22, 1920, in Cedarville, CA, but spent much of the first half of his life in Sacramento, where he attended Sac High, met and married Anna Ruth Francis, and raised his family. He worked a total of eleven years for Safeway, rising to the level of store manager before attending Heald's College where he earned his accounting degree in June 1957. He then began his career as an Accounting Officer for the State of California, much of it at the California Medical Facility in Vacaville. He retired in 1977. He spent his retirement years running a small accounting practice, playing quite a lot of golf, traveling often to the coast, lunching with the "Over-the-Hill Gang", and, best of all, being constantly with his beloved Anna.
Albert was a quiet veteran of World War II, but in fact saw heavy action aboard the troop ship U.S.S. Latimer during the invasions of Luzon and Okinawa.
