He served in the Army and Army Reserves for 16 years and lived in Seattle/Ft. Lewis for several years. He was a lifelong tennis player, a 100+ gallon blood donor, and a local hospital volunteer for over 20 years. He lived/worked in Thailand for a year, traveled to 40 countries, and enjoyed meeting and making friends around the world. He was always good-natured and willing to help others.

In lieu of flowers, friends and family are asked to make a donation to the Hawaii ARC (https://thearc.org/chapter/the-arc-in-hawaii/), or an organization of your choice, in honor of son Alan.
