Allan Robert Eich

To Susan, Keith and Chris,
With deeply felt love, we hold you close to us in thought and prayer. Al was my table mate in UPT and we flew “puddle jumpers” and C-141s together. I will never forget what he taught me about aviation, but most important, what he shared with all of us about life and our Lord. He is and will be missed but we shall never forget him and all that he stood for! I am glad we talked this summer as I have his voice nearby to remember distinctly and forever. He flys...

Allan was and is a distant older brother image to Larry, Rodger and I. Growing up we loved his RC controll airplanes, his convertable car he could drive backwards down the length of Audobon Lane and mostly his passion for learning to fly at a young age. We heard he wanted Uncle Bob to make a runway in the empty field next to the house. We have very fond memories of him and always speak highly of his talents and accomplishments as a pilot. Exciting interesting stories told today through...

Susan and family,

My very deepest and most sincere sympathy to your entire family.

Allan worked for me when I was the 737-300/400 Fleet Captain at US Airways. I can state unequivocably that there was not a better check airman in our ranks. He was highly respected by everyone within the training department, and earned a reputation amoungst our line pilots that was second to none. Whenever there was a challenge that our department faced, Allan was always one of the first...

What a wonderful Douglas reunion there must have been in Heaven on Mon. when Allan was greeted by the family members who were waiting there with open arms. Our grief is for our loss, but we praise God that we KNOW the Allan is with God and our loved ones who have gone before. Sue, Keith, and Chris, our prayers are with you for God's power to continue to sustain you and continue to give you peace.
Your cousin,

Through my tears I hold on to the most precious gift of all that Allan
left for us... Allan made sure we knew how very much he loved all of his family and we know that he is safe forever with God because he told us about his love for God and he wrote it in a journal form that he shared with his family at a family reunion. A written confirmation of hope in this dark time.

Every Poland Middle School Career Day I fondly remember the handsome pilot in full uniform sharing his
favorite career with our 8th grade
students. His legacy is the fine
young, polite men - sons, Keith and
Chris, as well as the many successful pilots he taught. Special prayers for the family and friends who will miss his earthly presence while rejoicing in his meeting with God in Heaven.

As as a ultralight owner, friend of fellow pilot, Charlie Coggins and acquaintence of Allan, my family and I offer our sincere sympathy for the entire family.

My life has been enriched because of my friendship with you and your family. Your love of God has touched me in a special way. Thank you for the special memories,times and prayers we shared. I know you are at God's right hand.

With Love and Prayers,
Irene
