Dear Barbara, Michelle and Ricky,
Erica and I are heartbroken for you! We love y’all and thought so much of Al. He was a strong man, but a “gentle giant” whose smile and laugh could light up a room! We know from hearing your stories what a great husband and father he was! Please know that we are praying for you and are here for anything that you need!
Thank you Darrin and Erica. Love you both
To the family of Alan,
Where do I begin. Alan was one of the best neighbors and friends anyone could ever for. I miss seeing him setting out on the porch and even if he wasn’t outside, I knew that he was there looking out for our neighborhood. He was one of the best people I have ever met and he will truly be missed. I feel I could never make up for the times he has helped us over here. Please let me know if you guys need anything! I will always be here for you! Please take care!
Your neighbor and friend,
Cheryl

I’m so sorry to hear the sad news of your loss. He was always so jovial, always smiling. Sending prayers for comfort and strength to the family.
I’m so sorry to hear of Alan’s passing. I worked with him when he was in the Highway building. I enjoyed talking to him. He was outspoken and willing to help anyone That’s what I admired about him. Praying for the Lolley family.
