Allan Kirshner

It's a testimony to how lousy a friend I am that I'm only just hearing about this. We loved Al like family. After over 20 years of friendship we lost touch for no good reason at all. I met Al when he was living in Chicago's New Town in 1970. He'd just returned from one of the many trips he took to exotic locales. I was always impressed by his adventurous nature. We played endless games of backgammon in his house in Highland Park and we visited him wherever we were in Miami. I'm really...

I have many fond memories of our fun and raucous times
during High School. Al was a good soul. Once, while standing in front of his or my locker, he said,'we'll be old and grey before we know it.' Every ten years or so, I have remembered what he said.
I'm very sad that he is gone, especially for his family.
