Georgia -- so sorry to hear of Allan's passing. My kids (also alumni of Bedford Park) remember running into the two of you in SoHo restaurant on Yonge Street on many Friday evenings, and I always enjoyed my professional interactions with him as well. Best, Les Lilly

My deepest condolences to Georgia and the family. I will always remember Allan and the wonderful times we had on many annual golf trips to our friend, Tom Devitt´s place in Florida. We also did gourmet cooking together at our monthly Marmitons gastronomy group, again with Tom, who was Allan´s childhood friend. Allan was an excellent and dedicated gastroenterologist, whose patients loved him. May his memory be a blessing. God bless.

Dear Georgia,
When I first joined NYGH in 1976 the first social event of that fall was a cocktail party in your own home. Allan went out of his way to take me by the shoulder and introduce me to many of the attendees. Allan was a fixture every weekday morning in `his´ chair in the doctors´ lounge sitting beside Tom Devitt and trading tall stories. I truly miss these stalwart members of our hospital.
