I just learned of Alan's passing in the Springfield Business Journal, and was shocked to read the news. Alan and Warren hold a special place in my heart, as they designed our One Hour Photo labs in the malls in the early '80's. What a fun time we had, Curt, Karleen Bright and I working together on a unique project with lots of challenges. Alan's research, enthusiasm for our new business and sense of humor made it all come together successfully. He indeed left his touch on the community.

Robyn,
I was stunned by Alan's sudden loss, and am so sorry I learned about his death and funeral after the services were over.
I never met Alan, but I always enjoyed the stories you told about Alan and your travels when we worked together at the News-Leader.
Reading his obituary, I realized I hadn't known about his many experiences, passions and talents. What a Renaissance man!
Robyn, you were such a joy to work with and I am so sorry you're having to bear this...

I've had the privilege of sharing a few wonderful wines with Alan over the last 15 years. It's really hard to believe he won't be coming through the tasting room door again.
I raise my glass to a great guy and to Robyn.
God bless.
