Dear Gert, Jeff, Scott, Ira and Ben....I am so very sorry to hear of Alan's passing....I will always have fond memories of Alan, a dear friend, who made this world a bit better for those who were priviledged to know him well. I know he is in a much better place, free of the ailments that he suffered. His kindness and demeanor will always be remembered by the entire Dimesky family.
