Alan was a good man to know and work with. He was enjoying life and retirement fully. This should not have happened to Alan and family!

My Uncle Alan was so people oriented and paid attention to everyone in his life not only family, but anyone that he worked with, spoke with. He´s always told me it´s about making memories and he was never shy about telling everybody about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He was so dear to me. Prayers to the rest of my family, including his children and in-laws. I love you, Uncle Alan.

I had the privilege of meeting the Waller´s at Toby Benoit´s book signing in Brooksville. The book is the life & times of the Waller family & their rich Florida history.
What a tragic ending to this story.

How very tragic...what a great loss to the community. So much history shared through his stories and recent book. I was honored to meet the Wallers at Toby Benoit´s book signing in Brooksville. I know they became friends during the writing of the families memoirs.
God bless those left to weep & mourn their departure from this earth. There will be a great rejoicing in heaven when we all gather by the river once again

My condolences to the entire Waller family. I met Alan through his son-in-law, Rodney Stone. He was an amazing individual, honest, caring, friendly and kind. What impressed me most about him was his deep love for his family. RIP my brother.
