• 

Albrecht, H. Peter Peter Albrecht, 79, of Minneapolis, MN was born on November 27, 1944, died suddenly of a stroke on April 26, 2024. He is proceeded in death by his sister Martha Albrecht and his parents, Heine and Betty. Peter is survived by his two sisters, Gale Sharpe and Ann (Dodd) Cosgrove; his beloved daughters, Ana and Libby; his granddaughter, Ryeley; 2 step daughters, Gianna (Dan) and Luci Camorani; dear friend Charlie Kapp; in addition to many nieces, nephews and friends who adored him. Peter was a lawyer and then a judge in Hennepin County, MN until his retirement in 2009. Peter is remembered fondly as a man with a big heart, strong opinions (including his vitriolic hatred for vegetables), a great sense of humor and a love of playing a wide variety of instruments. His penchant for pranks is legendary among colleagues, friends and family. He is missed. Wherever he is, we are sure he is wearing one of his signature bowties, serenading a room with a guitar and plotting his next best prank. Service will be held on May 13th at Temple Israel at 2pm. Due to nearby construction and parking concerns, the family recommends arriving early. Memorials preferred to NAMI MN, Beacon Interfaith Housing, MN Bluegrass & Old Time Music Assn or donor's choice.
