Omaha, NE Monday, August 31, 2015 I just heard the news Monday late afternoon, I was shocked to say the least. Alan was my oldest friend going back to North Side grade school. We had not seen each other that much in the last couple years, and at times like this you always wish you had made more effort. For me this is a really hard loss, so many of my childhood memory's were with Alan. I wish God's Blessing for all of Alan's family.
