Alan enjoyed family vacations fishing, boating, and hiking in the Thousand Islands, at Eagle Bay, and all over the Adirondacks. He especially loved spending time at the family camp in Alexandria Bay, watching the ships go by. Finding new trails and waterfalls to explore was a favorite pastime. He especially loved our trip seeing Dave and Maria in Switzerland and touring the country.
At the time of his death, Alan was in remission from leukemia and had been a 14 year survivor of pulmonary fibrosis.
