Having spent time with Alan who was graciously entertaining father in law and brother in law on the golf course, to hosting so many Thanksgiving feasts, family has alway meant a lot to Alan. We loved him back. His wit and humor will be missed, but will also live on through his daughter Liz who he adored and has had such a wonderful relationship. I offer Peace and love for my sister Sandra, my niece and her husband Liz and Chris as well as condolences to his family also.
