Alan married Glenda Martindale in 1990 at the United Methodist Church. He was a very caring man with a deep love for his family. Alan was very outgoing and made friends easily wherever he went. He made many close friends at work, at his kid’s sporting events, with his neighbors, as an EMT, and as a hiker in the Adirondack mountains. He had a long career at AngioDynamics as a Systems Analyst and took pride in his career. He was always willing to help others and always treated everyone with kindness.

Alan was an avid hiker who conquered the 46 high peaks and hiked year-round. He loved cooking, a good poker game and trying new restaurants with his family.
