A wise man is a rare man and Alan was that man. At the Institute, where we met, he stood out for his thoughtfulness and intelligence. Lovely guy. Chris and celia

1971 at Newcastle Medical School and many of us have great memories of being dragooned into Alan's "Jug Band" and playing at a few concerts. Alan was almost semi-professional which was not what could be said about the rest of us. However, he never gave up or criticised, always had a smile and somehow ensured we made a noise that was actually reasonable and that we enjoyed ourselves. Many in that year will not forget that experience and we sort of looked up to him because he was so "mature". He was the perfect example as to why entry to medical school should not just be for 18 year olds. Our 51st reunion is in September and Alan was planning to come. Now it will be our duty to remember him on the evening with great fondness. 51 years later, it is wonderful to read how much of a difference he made to so many people's lives.

In memory of a wonderful friend, A brilliant psychiatrist and a polymath, equally at home in ancient Greek philosophy and Wittgenstein. You are much missed.

Such a lovely soul. We will miss you

A guide of youth,
he did things his own way.
A man of truth,
there’s nothing else to say.

With love,
Rory

In loving memory of Alan Lee, such a wonderful friend and neighbour. My thought are with Helen at this sad time. Mary

Allie, my uncle, godfather, and friend. I will miss you more than you will know. We had so much fun over the last 30 years from test cricket and driving in sports cars to listening to rock and roll and debating politics, we had great fun while we did it. Thank you for being such a fantastic mentor. I will miss you dearly. Thinking of you always. Paddy
