To my loving. special cousin Alan ,who we had a lot of fun with.When alan lived in Burriville we would go with Renee, Adam. Trish and auntie margo.. Alan would give rides to the children or play cards with his mom, aunt and Doreen. We always had a great time. Alan was a wonderful cousin who made everyone feel good, made you laugh and gave you his heart. Alan will truly be missed by all his cousin and family. Our hearts are broken that he has been taken from us, but now alan is with his dad, grandparents and aunts and uncles. They are all probably playing cards and watching us all. Alan are prayers are with you and family and we will always love and miss you. God Bless Love Your cousin Suzanne

Although I didn't see Alan very often I always remember him as being very pleasant and friendly and never had a bad word to say. I wish we had spent more time together but typically. We were relatives that drifted apart. I will miss being able to chat with him whenever we saw each other. I k now he's in a good place. R.I.P. Alan
