Alan ment the world to us being your first child of four we feel you learn by your first child as
much as you love all your children there is somethink special about your first Alan was always
smiling alwys the one to have a joke ,his favorite saying if someone wasn't smileing would be "Dae a
see a smile" especially to laura he would poke her arm and say that to her he had nick names for all
of them laura would be called flossy, Stuart would be jaws cause he has loads of teeth or so Alan
thought and Darren would be called zippy cause he never shuts up and his dad he called B because
thats short for Billy me I am just good old mum. Alan loved fishing and as a young lad went with
Stuart fishing with a local man Malcom Kirk the boys thought the world of him Alan and Stuart where
very close always together they also went up to a local farm we have been in the village for all of
his life the two boys went up to the farm as often as they could to help out Alan was at the sick
childrens hospital from when he was 6 weeks old untill he was 19 then went to the western in
Edinburgh he hated having Epilepsy it was alwys in his way what ever he wanted to do like be a
mechanic like his dad Alan loved to be in the engine of a car but always had to be supervised.At the
age of 23 Alan met his fiancee Siobhan Pearson they had a house together and were planning to get
married Alan was siezure free for three years and managed to get his provisional driving lisence and
was taking lessons he had applied to go to college and had been accepted he got the letter
confirming it the morning he died and was very excited just as his life was turning around for the
better he went fishing that day to catch a pike and get his photo taken with it he had that siezure
and drowned how cruel they say there is a god but why take Alan so young and just when he had things
to look forward to as people say he was a loveable rog that every one loved oh he had his off days
when he was crabby and couldn't be bothered or he was tiered his medication made him sleepy, and
mornings where his worst time but give him 5 minutes to waken up and he would be smiling.Alan alwys
wanted a dog and got his beloved Tyler she was his baby Alan had a really bad absesse on his gum and
had to have a stay in hospital and all he wanted was to get home to his beloved Tyler.Alan had a
honda motor bike he loved to bits it was only a small one but to Alan it could have been a big
1000cc Alan was a Rangers supporter and just loved to here "simply the best " played at the end of a
disco ar after a night out we played it at his funeral it was so sad Alan also loved Bob Marley you
know I often wonder why the young are taken at such an early age they say there is a god on this
earth but if so why take my Alan away from me and leave an ache in my heart that wont go away.love
you son mum,dad,stu darren and laura (or scooby as you called her).xxx
