Albert E. HOLHVET

Mr. Hollivet will be sadly missed in Southland lumber iircles because his genial, good nature made him beloved by everyone, a good sport in all things and a man who was as genuinely well-liked as he himself liked all.

He worked many years for the Hammond Lumber Company and the American Hardwood Lumber Company, both in Los Angeles, until he started his Angelus firm at 6700 S. Alameda in 1930, reports Tom Burden, salesmanager of the firm.

Mr. Hollivet had been visiting the Goodyear-Nelson Hardwood Co. sawmill in the Northwest and combining a short vacation. He and his brother-in-1aw, Gus Wolfe, who accompanied him on the trip, had been fishing and Mr. Hollivet had been dressing for dinner that evening when his delay was investigated and he was found dead of a heart attack. He had been in failing health some time and had several heart spells.

Al Hollivet was a Mason, part owner of the Los Almos Land and Cattle Co., which has a duck club, owned racehorses for many years and had been a good golfer until his illnesses. He leaves his wife, Deva, of the home at 4926 Gloria Ave., Encino.
