His brother Leo finished his paper route for him.

Bert was expelled from the altar boys(St.Louis Church) by Fr. Wilmoos. He told the altar boys that they were not "catholic enough". Berts mother went to church and told the Father off! The next time Albert came to mass Fr. told him he could no longer be an altar boy. This is when the Monette family switched from St. Louis to St. Pauls Church.
