Biography

Albert "Curley" Dresden, a young individual with a distinctive nickname, met an untimely demise at his residence, a notable establishment known as The Norland Hotel, located in the city of Spokane, Washington. A closer examination of his family background reveals that his surname, although commonly referred to as Dresden, was actually spelled Drezden. His parents, hailing from Germany, brought with them a rich cultural heritage that undoubtedly played a significant role in shaping his life.

At the time of his passing, Albert "Curley" Dresden was engaged in a humble yet vital profession as a newspaper delivery person for the Spokane Spokesman-Review, a publication that continues to thrive to this day. His daily routine likely involved rising early to collect the latest edition of the newspaper and then distributing it to the eager hands of his customers, often before the sun had fully risen over the city.
