It brings great sadness to announce the passing of past Charter Member and original Engineer of the Huntingtown Volunteer Fire Department, Albert Lee Robinson. Mr Robinson was instrumental in the foundation of the department in the early 1970's when the citizens of Huntigtown realized they lacked the needed fire protection for their small-knit farming community. The original meetings took place at the Huntingtown United Methodist Church. These citizens ultimately founded the charter and development of where we are today.
Albert L. Robinson, 70, of Prince Frederick, MD passed away at his home on May 20, 2012. Albert was born in Prince Frederick, MD to the late James Briscoe and Della Gatton Robinson. Besides his parents, he is predeceased by his siblings, James B. Robinson and Nellie Mae Carpenter. Albert was a typical old time Calvert County man, he was born here, lived here all his life, farmed during the season and worked as a carpenter when not farming.
