Having worked with Alan in various pub companies over 30 years, he became a good friend and confidante. His honesty and integrity in an industry not noted for those two great values, became indispensible. He earned the respect of everyone, even those he was meant to keep an eye on.  I am not sure how I am going to cope without him.

On top of all that, a Bath supporter to boot. TOP MAN!!

My condolences to all his family He will be sorely missed.
