Alan excelled at many sports in life such as baseball, softball, hockey and golf. He is a six-time champion and three-time green jacket winner of the Fulton CC. His family and friends consider him one of the best trout fishermen to ever tie a fly, having caught numerous lunkers in his life. He loved fishing with his buddies, John, Mickey and Mark. Most of Alan’s favorite stories are with these guys in Colorado or Bennett Spring. Those who knew Alan knew of his profound love for dogs that you just had to see to believe.
