Claude Bissel described Trueman in these words:
   −
::"''Albert Trueman was a tall man, with a commanding physical presence, measured and a little formal in speech, but without pomposity.  He had a deep, resonant voice that he used on the public platform with calculated dramatic effect, hinting at the operatic career that he might well have had.  He was a genial and a witty companion, given occasionally to bouts of hamletian self-analysis, from which he would rapidly emerge with renewed vigour and undiminished joviality.  He took satisfaction in the honours he had received - honorary degrees from a number of universities and membership in the Order of Canada - but he rejoiced most in the love that encompassed him in his family and in the affectionate esteem in which he was held by friends and colleagues everwhere.''."|Claude Bissel (Bissel, 1982, p.8)
