Dear Marcia & Family,

I am most grateful for the priviledge and honor of knowing and working with Allan. Our friendship goes back many years to the days at A.H. Robins. I know how courageous and difficult his fight with cancer had been. I suffer the loss of a good friend and share in your loss of a Great husband, Dad, Grandfather, and wonderful man to all who knew him. We will all miss him.

Dear Bernstein family, I only knew Allan for a short while that he worked as a guard at the Masonic Home. He truly was a kind and sweet man. He would often talk about his family, especially his grandchildren. He would always greet everyone at the guard gate with a smile and a good morning to you. I am sure he will be greatly missed by his family and friends. It was a pleasure knowing Allan.

My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.

From, Connie Farmer
