Alan Scott Black

You are missed every day!

I am so sad to hear this, as Alan and I were friends and roommates in Medical School. Alan was an energetic colleague and was always ready for the next adventure. He will be missed.

So sorry to hear when any of our UVA SOM classmates dies; I didn't know Alan very well in med school, but what I do remember about him is his very kind presence, calm demeanor, and his greetings with a smile whenever I ran into him. He seemed to laugh a lot. We'll miss him.

I have the privilege of knowing Alan in medical school. We challenged each other running in Roanoke on rotation (he was the faster more persistent one). Also had the experience -more than a little crazy of riding as a passenger while he was learning to fly small planes Out of Charlottesville , bottoming out at several small rural airfields-scary, but adventurous. He was generous with his time and friendship and an all-around lovely guy.

I had the honor to work with Alan in PA in 2015. An excellent physician and interesting fellow. Peace Out my friend `til we meet again.

Fondly remember Alan and his cheerful smile from our days together at UVA Medical School. Sincere condolences to his family.

Al was and remains one of my most respected friends. He was my Ranger buddy in Ranger school and an incredible classmate to many. His natural humor was always motivational to me and his courageous approach to everything was something to be admired. I am a much better man for knowing and learning from Al. He was a genuine, authentic and caring person and leader. I will always remember him. Be Thou at Peace Al.

I had the opportunity to work with Dr. Black. Sorry to hear of his passing.

I worked with Dr. Black in Rome, GA. He was a very interesting man to talk to. Conversations with him always left me thinking about different perspectives from my own. Patients liked him because he would take the time to sit and talk with them, not only about their anesthesia but about anything and everything they wanted to talk about. I liked talking to him about college football. Roll Tide Dr. Black and rest peacefully.
