But, above all else, he was a husband, a father and a grandfather. He married Cathy soon afterwards and in the summer of 1981 his daughter Sonia was born.

Alan contracted Covid-19 following an outpatient hospital visit in early January and died on February 19th, with both Cathy and Sonia holding his hands as he slipped away.
