Sad to read this, quite shocking news- I always liked his way of making fun on the boards, never met him but he sure was a nice guy to have around.

I wish his family and friends a lot of strenght during these difficult times and hereby offer my condolences.

You will be missed 4 sure !

I hope you - Allen - will find what you're looking in the world beyond our comprehension.

We will never forget you bud !

I will miss Allan a lot - I will miss the late night chats we had. He was one of the true gentlemen in the industry, no.. one of the true gentlemen of all walks of life! An honest genuine person that will be sorely missed.

Allan will be sadly missed by all who knew him, our sincere condolences to Patty & Melissa

Rest in Peace Captain

RIP Alan, I am shocked at this news. You were one of the nicest guys in the industry and we will miss you.

I would just like to ask all the praying members to join me in saying a little prayer for the friends and family involved in this tragic passing of a very caring person. I did not know him personally but I can only imagine what it would be like to lose such a brilliant smile.

It is going to be very difficult for everyone who knew him for a while and I am sure they could use all the prayers they can get.

RIP Allan and I hope that you are in a better place filled with happiness and that your daughter is with you.

I will miss you Allan! I'll never forget what a kind and wonderful person you were as well as an awesome friend! Rest in peace & sing with the angels! Love you always and we will be there for Patty, Melissa & the family.

Alan was one of the older timers and started when this industry was in its infancy. Always positive, he'd help anyone if asked.

In over 10 years I can't recall a bad word said against him, he was just that type of guy, you know, friendly to everyone.

So to find out that he's passed is a shock.

I'd like to offer my sincere condolences to Patty, Melissa and family.

Now back with your daughter, RIP mate.

You will be sadly missed by all.

Im so sorry to hear this. Allan was a real character and he will be sadly missed both in the industry and amongst his family and many friends. RIP Allan

**bonustreak** · 31 July 2010, 4:54 pm

I will never forget the first time I met Allan and Patty in Vegas, he took me under his wing and taught me the in and outs of this industry. Allan always cheered me up when I was down by sending me fabulous songs to listen to. You will be missed so much Cappy! My heart goes out to Patty and Melissa you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Hi Alan,

I find myself staring at these threads each morning with an empty feeling in my stomach. It's hard to believe that such an animated and wonderful person has left the community. I guess I watch the thread to see all the older affiliates I've been in contact with over the years together in one thread again. I've only met a handful in person.

So Alan, thanks for bringing us together again for a little moment of ... clarity, perspective, love and some form of unity... we need it.

Captain would want us to all get along going forward. He would tell us not to worry about the little stuff and keep doing our best. Honor the Captain by keeping your own life in perspective and loving everyone around you.

We're all right behind you Alan!
Thanks for all the support over the years!!

- Your friend, Bernie

Shocking and sad news for sure. I had the pleasure of meeting Allan and his wife Patty in Belize a couple of years ago. He was such a funny, kind, intelligent and crazy person - he made a lasting impression with his wonderful character. I will never forget him. I will always remember him standing on the top of an Inca pyramid shouting after he had climbed the hundreds of steps straight to the top. My condolences to the family. Rest in peace Allan.

**SlotsAff** · 2 August 2010, 8:27 am

This is terrible news - my thoughts go out to his family.

**Topboss** · 2 August 2010, 8:31 am

I haven't been to the forums for a week or 2 and decided to catchup on all the news today. This was most certainly some news I wished I had not read!!
Although I never met Allan personally, I felt like I knew him so well as he was one of the 1st people I met on GPWA years ago.
He was a breath of fresh air and I always remember having a giggle at all his late night songs he used to post one after another.
He will be sorely missed and my sincere condolences to all his family and friends

**Puma** · 2 August 2010, 10:16 am

Indeed this is a sad time for all of us at gpwa as we lose someone that was important to not only the industry but also to some of us personally. The Captain will be very much missed. My condolences to the family in this very sad time.

**Betpartners** · 2 August 2010, 11:18 am

I never knew Allan nor did i communicate with him in any sense but it is very clear from the messages on here that he was a much loved and respected person that will be greatly missed.

It is with regret that i never did get to know Allan and i extend my condolences to his family.
