Alan had 2 children who became his entire focus. He never missed a performance, concert, or sporting event. Although Alan loved his children his 4 grandchildren brought him more joy and happiness than anything else in life. He treasured every moment he had with his grandkids and he never failed to be present for them at every family gathering, holiday, birthday, and school event. Every year, Alan made sure to be at his son's house on Christmas morning to participate in Christmas traditions with his children and grandchildren.
