Asa Shelby Albright, Jr., 80 year old Leedey OK. resident was born March 5, 1939 and passed from this life June 10, 2019. He was the son of Asa Shelby Albright, Sr. and Lorine Barnard Albright. Asa grew up in the Red Star community and attended grade school at Liberty Center and high school at Leedey Public School, graduating with the class of 1957.
On March 10, 1960 at the First Baptist Church in Elk City, OK., Asa was united in marriage to Esther Louise Loyd. This union of 59 years was blessed with two children, Gina Suzanne and Trey (Asa Shelby III).
Asa worked across the entire state in the construction business and the building of the dam at Foss Lake was one of his proudest and most memorable jobs. Along with farming and ranching, his special interests included researching the Barnard family ancestry, guns, hunting and traveling the western United States.
