Hello Julie,
I was thinking about you and Al yesterday and thought I would look you up, so sorry to see that Al had passed away. Al was a great guy with a terrific sense of humor, I wil always remember the wonderful times we had at Huckelberrys together.

Julie,
I was very sorry to hear about Allan. I learned a lot from him and I will always remember him as the life of those wonderful Carbon parties.

Jack, Julie and the Egan Family,
Very sorry to hear of Al's passing. He was a really great guy. His persona (and sideline cheering) will be missed.

The Manhattan College alumni community shares the grief, and is now praying for our fellow alumni and the family at this time. The Alumni Office has been informed. As well as the Jasper Jottings community that I personally can reach. We are all a little poorer now. "No man is an island, entire of itself ... any man's death diminishes me". We are sorry for your loss.

Julie and family, We are so sorry to hear of Allan's passing. We was such a wonderful man! Never forget his chant of "Go Town" at the football and lax games. Our prayers are with all of you.
Love, Janet and Tom
