I am deeply sadden to hear of Alan's passing. I have so many happy childhood memories of Alan spending holidays at Grandma and grandpa's house in Livingston. He was my older cousin , he taught me how to ride a bike and climb a tree... he was my hero.
My deepest sympathy to Aunt Frankie, Phyllis, Russell and family.

So sorry. Last time we saw Alan was in Little Rock at Uncle Gene and Aunt Frankie anniversary. Was just stunned to hear the news. Kim and I are going make a donation to Wounded Warriors in his name. I hope the family finds peace.

Al was one of the sweetest and kindest men I knew. Larry and I will miss him terribly. We had a lot of fun on bowling tournaments and league bowling and I will miss that. Our deepest sympathy and love to Barb and his family
