BELLEVILLE – A woman who worked at various employers in Illinois over a period of 20 years alleges she was exposed to asbestos ( asbestos exposure).

Marguerite Denson filed a complaint on July 27 in the St. Clair County Circuit Court against Albany International Corp., Alfa Laval Inc., Armstrong International Inc., et al. alleging negligence.

On Aug. 22, 2016, the suit states she first became aware that she developed lung cancer, an asbestos-induced disease.
