Alan was a best friend and a brother to me. Whether hunting, fishing, hauling logs, working at Gooseberry or whatever, always a good time. My condolences to the family and all the friends he will be sorely missed by. Thanks Al, for all the great times, wonderful meals, hospitality, help and laughs you brought to us all, see you down the line.... Scott Roen
