Alan,
This is a very long time in coming. I literally have not seen you in over 10 years, but you, Loretta and the boys were one of the high points of our life in CA. Your family always brings back such great memories. I'm in Hawaii, Suzy in Florida, and Kiley in Minnesota. Loretta sold us that beautiful home we resided in for 17 years. We can't thank you enough for being part of our lives. Hope you are well, but we will truly miss the joy Loretta gave our family. Have a great Holiday!

What a loss to our collective lives - none more so than to Alan, Alan and Connor. Our deepest condolences to you all - Loretta had such a poised and graceful presence in an otherwise challenging world. Our hearts - as I'm sure are yours - are broken.
