We were sorry to hear about the passing of Alan. We only heard the news last night from a friend in Hazleton, where we went to school with Alan. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers.

My family and I are deeply saddened by Allan's passing. Allan was a dear friend and colleague of mine. His expert support for all the Egyptian projects, for which I was responsible during the past decade while living in Cairo, was key to their successful execution and completion. We always looked forward to his visits to Cairo. Allan was the best of the best and his wonderful wit and sense of humor lightened many a stressful day during our collaboration. Allan and I continued to stay in touch these past couple of years. His warm, congenial spirit and bright smile will be deeply missed.

We lived next door to Allan for only a short time. Allan welcomed us to the neighborhood with his kindness. Allan and I often shared thoughts and ideas on how we would continue to make improvements on our yards this coming spring. I will follow through with those hopes by planting a small tree in memory of Allan near the property line of our back yards. Our thoughts and prayers are with Allan and your family.

Lauren and Kevin, I went to high school with your dad and remember him as a dear and funny guy. Another friend of ours from way back then let me know that he had died; there's a circle of friendship that keeps us connected through the years, and I hope that our fond remembrances are a comfort to you. I'm sorry for your loss. Kevin, I'm a neighbor of yours in Lancaster County, so know that there are tender thoughts of Allan nearby.

I worked for Allan at Parsons. He taught me a lot about project controls. I enjoyed working for him and he was a great supervisor.

was very sorry to hear about Allan. I worked with Allan while he was at Gilbert/Commonwealth and Worleyparsons until I moved to Green Bay, and will remember him being a soft-spoken and friendly person, always willing to help out with a task or project. He was always a great person to commiserate with about stuff going on on our projects, or the latest corporate gaffes. He mentored me in project controls on my first projects when I started at the company, and we shared a lot a great experiences working together on Egyptian power projects. Allan was a great colleague, and a kind, gentle soul. My deepest condolences and sympathies to Allan's family and friends.
