On behalf of my family here in Scotland I would like to pass on my condolences to Allan’s family. My mother, Myra Beattie Turnbull, asked me to find out about Allan as she had lost contact and it was very sad to find out that he had passed away. Allan was my grandmother’s cousin (Jessie Laird) and she always talked about the times when he used to come and visit her and my grandfather (John Laird) in Hamilton, Scotland during the war. Even after my grandparents passed away my mum still kept in contact with Allan via Christmas cards. He will always be in our thoughts.

On behalf of the Vets' Angels, another "angel" and I took Allan sweets after each month's birthday party at the Colonel Belcher, where he lived. My understanding was that the parties were too stimulating for him, but he enjoyed the treats and we were happy to deliver them to him and say hello. He was always appreciative and I enjoyed his quiet, friendly demeanor and sweet smile. My condolensces to his family and friends.

I worked for the corporate secretary at the Wheat Pool during the 1970's and remember Mr. Beattie as a kind and warm man who was also a stickler for accuracy. My sympathies to his family on their loss.

I do not know any of Allans children, however, I do remember Laura. I always enjoyed a visiting with Allan when he came to Edmonton for meetings at the Unifarm office. My deepest sympathy to the family. Minnie May Reich (nee Howe)
