Once again your family has gathered together to celebrate the LIFE of another one of your siblings. I was teaching in Germany when Bernadine, Allan's mother died. Now he is with her, and with his Dad, Joe, as well as brother Herman. The rest of your family will take comfort in knowing that they have that many "brokers" in heaven!

My condolences to Allan's family on his passing. I was shocked to learn of this and it is a comfort to me to know that he is not alone...he is now with his Best Friend and golfing budding Mark, my late husband. I have only known Allan as "Borje" and after Mark passed away he phoned me quite often to see how me and the kids were doing, he was that kind of person. I am going to miss him a lot. R.I.P. Borj...may you and Mark have many Tee-Offs in Heaven.

I am so sorry to hear of Allan's passing. I went to school with Allan in Annaheim and considered him a friend. I did get to see him every once in awhile when I would shop at Safeway. His smile and cheerful nature will be greatly missed. May he rest in peace.....

I am so sorry to read about Allan. Needless to say, I was shocked as I have been wondering why I haven't seen Allan at Safeway in the last while. He always had a smile and a chat and was very conscientious about his work. I will miss seeing him. With sincere condolences. Pat Doepker-Sarauer
