Alan was a kind and generous man noteable for his advocacy for the rights of his daughter and many others like her with intellectual disabilities. I was proud to work alongside him and Carol at Starkey, and I celebrate his legacy. My condolences to his family on their loss of this great man.

Dearest Carol, Most of my knowledge about Alan came from the many stories you shared while we worked side by side at Hadley Middle School for 15 years. Dean and I appreciated being included in Alan's retirement celebration and meeting the family. My heart goes out to you and your loved ones during this time of great loss. My prayers for you will continue. Peace and love, Angela Young
