Alan was a giving, caring and selfless soul.  He shared his passion for his carrier and would to anything for anyone.  Smart and perfectionist, almost to a fault. He was very precise and would describe himself as occasionally being a “workaholic.” 

When Alan wasn’t at the job site, he enjoyed being outdoors, fishing with his son, Derek and helping neighbors.  To unwind, he enjoyed watching late night shows and comedies with great laughs at the end of the day. 

With help of Moffitt Cancer center, Alan donated his corneal, helping someone to see the beauty of this world.  He was also participating in medical study until very last days of his life.  He wanted to help anyone in every possible way. He was all about helping others.
