Mrs. Saltzman, the former Alberta Elizabeth Mumme, was born October 5, 1919 in Shickley, Nebraska. She was the daughter of Arthur and Rosa (Totemeier) Mumme. She received her education at rural country schools in Nebraska. She moved to the southeast Iowa area (her mother's home area) in 1936. On June 1, 1941 in Keota, Iowa, Alberta was united in marriage to Wilfred Daniel Saltzman, Sr. Mr. Saltzman died Saturday, October 21, 2010 at Arbor Court in Mt. Pleasant.
Mrs. Saltzman was a longtime cook for the former Sarah Beckwith P.E.O. Home and then the Van Vorhies Haus in Mt. Pleasant, from which she retired. Alberta was a member of Calvary Baptist Church for more than 40 years, and a member of the church's Mission Circle. Alberta will be remembered for her pies, which were a part of her ministry in her church. She made an untold number of pies for numerous activities of the church, most especially for the Deacons of the church to give to visitors. Alberta also made pies to sell at the local Farmer's Market.
