Dearest Alex & Celine, Renee,Gabe,Anjali, Darryl & Priya and Lily, family and friends, we are so shocked and sorry to hear the sudden passing away of our dear Alan. The Lord plucked Alan like a blossoming rose in the garden and handed him in our Heavenly Father's hands. The Lord is pleased with Alan and is surrounded by the angels and the saints. Alan loved life, his family,his friends and God was always in the centre of his life. The joy always radiated from his smile, always caring, simple and humble and always respectful to one and all. A fine young man and a role model to the youth and pride to his family. He will be missed and we will always celebrate his life and thank God for bringing Alan into our lives. We want you to know that we will continue to ask the Lord to give you the strength and grace to bear this great loss. We share your sorrow. We love you Alan and we will miss you very much.
