    I met Alan in 3rd grade and we went through the rest of our school years together... well, through high school anyway. I remember him as a quiet soul, always smiling. Oh, that ear-to-ear smile of his! He was such a sweet guy. Sad to hear of his passing. My thoughts, prayers, and loving thoughts for the family and all of his loved ones. ~ Melanie Knapp-Clevenger, Lubbock, Texas

Gone too soon...RIP Alan ~ Beverly Bremers Lipton, Mission Viejo, California

    Our thoughts and prayers are with the Bremers Family and friends as we all mourn the loss of Alan. I first met Al when he started working for Fisher in Marshalltown, IA. I played a LOT of softball with Al and got to know him well (he was the fastest guy I've ever seen). I moved to Sherman, TX in 1991 and Al arrived there shortly afterward. We were good friends and I was lucky to have known Al throughput our careers. I never heard him say a disparaging word. He was an excellent engineer; very organized and a results oriented person. He was a great organizer as all the Fisher golfers will attest to. Al, we will miss you. I hope they have softball leagues in heaven. I'm sure you'll be organizing and recruiting a team of the "old guys" if they do. RIP my friend. ~ Dave Higgins, McKinney, Texas
