To the family and friends of Alan, I would like to share my sorrow in his passing. Although up in years he had a sparkle in his eyes and laughter that was contagious! I will remember our many conversations and jelly donuts. He invested in many area organizations to continue his love of medicine and those that helped his family and with education and libraries. Alan was a remarkable human being and I will truly miss him. In his honor, I will donate to my local library and bring flowers to the frineds he left behind. My prayers are wih you all.
