Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry for your loss. In addition to being my attorney at one time, he was a friend. His stories of scuba diving adventures prompted both me and my daughter to pursue our own underwater travels. He was loved by many and will be missed.

I am sorry to hear that Mr. Amos passed away. I am proud to have been able to work together with you but I really regret not having met him ever since.

I am so sorry for the loss of Mr. Amos I needed a lawyer and a hand holder and he did both to perfection. May his memory be a blessing.

A man who loved life.
He will be missed

Mr. Amos was always kind to me. He was always patient answering my questions. He was a class act.

I knew Alan as a fellow attorney who gave my big break in 1985 when with his help, I opened my own practice and we shared an office together. What i remember well was how close he was to his 3 children, and how he loved and adored them. Alan was both a decent and generous guy, and also maybe the most intelligent attorney i ever worked with. He was a true Renaissance man who wanted to enjoy and experience life to the fullest. My condolences to Marsha, his children and his granchildren.

Alan was an adventurer, always wanting to find the next trail to see where it would lead. His curiosity and wanderlust led him and his dear Marcia to travel the world, often to offbeat places and fascinating experiences. The few times that I and my husband Bob spent with him and Marcia was always filled with camaraderie and good conversation. I especially remember him as the wonderful, loving companion to my cousin Marcia. For that I am so grateful.

We will miss Alan as a good friend. He was a good man whom we will never forget.

Dear Cousin, you left us much too soon. We miss you and your stories of your trips and adventures. Our sympathy to our dear Marcia and your children.
