He attended OU for 2 years where he also played in the Band. Alan worked at Tinker AFB for 10 years before deciding to go into business for himself, opening Oklahoma Scuba in Norman. As a certified Scuba instructor he held classes to certify others in his favorite sport. Alan was a devoted son, singlehandedly taking care of his father thru his 18 month recovery from ulcer surgery and a broken hip. In November of 2009 Alan was diagnosed with a rare form of stomach cancer, inoperable, and stage 4. Alan passed away after a brief battle on 1 June, 2010.

I didn't always show it, but I loved you Alan, you were a better man than I.
