Joseph A. Almburg Jr.
DELAVAN – Joe was born in Dekalb, IL on April 15th, 1963 and has lived his adult life in Delavan, WI after graduating from UW Whitewater. Joe Jr. passed away at the young age of 57 on Friday, Dec. 18th, 2020 after losing his battle with Covid-19.
Joe was an amazing man with a heart of gold. He loved life, family, and friends. Joe lived for playing hockey, as he played at least twice a week. Joe also enjoyed hunting, fishing, boating, golfing, snowmobiling, riding his Harley, hanging out at the fire pit with a glass of wine, and almost everything outdoors.
Joe loved to share laughs and tell stories, and he could tell them well! Whether he told a story once or 100 times, it would be just as funny as the first time you heard it. His smile was contagious and his laugh infectious. To know Joe is to love Joe, and he is so loved.
Joe was a Senior Account Manager with Univar Solutions. He enjoyed his job, his co-workers and was very respected. Joe followed in his family’s footsteps in the auctioneering business. He worked part time providing his auctioneering services for many charitable and wildlife auctions. He was a member of the Auctioneers Association, USA Hockey, National Wild Turkey Federation, Delavan Hunt Club, Delavan Lake Yacht Club, Our Redeemer Lutheran Church, and several other organizations.
Joe is survived by his soul mate, Emily Van Der Haegen, his parents, Joe and Phyllis Almburg, whom he looked up to immensely, daughter, Joselyn Almburg of Chicago, and son, Andrew (Cassidy) Almburg of Delavan, all of whom he was very proud. He is also survived by his granddaughter Cora, who he adored, and his bonus children Blaine, Anna (Kris) and Scotty Van Der Haegen, who he loved as his own. Additionally, Joe is survived by his sister-in-law Lynn Almburg, his niece Emma and nephew Owen, who meant the world to him. Joe Jr. had many other loving family members and beautiful friends he has left behind.

In 2001 Bonhams & Brooks merged with Phillips Son & Neale to form a new UK company trading as Bonhams. Phillips Son & Neale had been based in 101 New Bond Street, which subsequently became the new headquarters of Bonhams. The building consisted of seven different freeholds and had been described as “a Dickensian rabbit warren”. The first of the sites to be acquired was Blenstock House, an Art Deco building at the junction of Blenheim Street and Woodstock Street, eventually acquiring the complete building in 1974.

Warlow v Harrison (1859) is an English contract law case that talks about the liability of an auctioneer when he fails to sell the auctioned property to the highest bona fide bidder in an auction without reserve. The defendant, an auctioneer, offered a horse for sale at a public auction with no reserve. The plaintiff attended the auction and placed a bid of 60 guineas. The horse’s owner placed a bid of 61 guineas. The plaintiff declined to make any further bids, and the defendant (who appears to have been unaware that the bidder was the owner) put down the hammer to sell the horse to the owner for 61 guineas. The plaintiff asserted that the horse belonged to him because he was the highest bona fide (true) bidder at an unreserved auction. The plaintiff claimed in his pleadings that the defendant served as his agent to carry out this contract.
