A Ridgefield resident for the past 15 years, Alan previously resided in Brookfield and before that Staten Island, New York. He was a voracious reader and spent much of his spare time at the Brookfield and Ridgefield Libraries. He enjoyed New York Times crossword puzzles and could complete them with ease. He loved cars and his prized possession in retirement was his 1998 Ford Mustang GT. He had a love for animals, especially dogs. His great joy in retirement was taking long walks with his beloved dogs, Scooter and Emeline.
