Bro Alan our paths first crossed just after I joined in 1979 and kept crossing over many years. My first convention in 1994 as PGP South Lincs was an eye opener as was our Regalia visit to your Investiture. Your words and advice, freely given, were so welcome and I look back with fond memories. Till we meet again RIP Bro Al I will miss you

My first Grand Primo experience at Grove Hoyse Summer Gala in 1994. A wonderful man and a Brother. Someone you truly could look up to and I don't mean just physically. We enjoyed many a chat and Bro Alan used to give me regular donations to my favourite charity
