Their love was palpable; their hands always intertwined. They were truly one flesh. Alan and Ellen's marriage bore fruit in their two much-loved children, Lisa Jackson, and Chris Kidd.Alan enjoyed being a grandfather and great-grandfather. Alan's calm, reassuring demeanor paired with his lifelong ability to fix anything, served him well throughout his career as an appliance salesman with JC Penney, a manager of McDonalds (and graduate of Hamburger University), and finally as a laser specialist with Rent-It. After many years with Rent-It, Alan started his own laser business serving the agricultural and construction industries. Alan's retirement years were spent in his houseboat with Ellen, enjoying the spectacular Oklahoma sunsets on Lake Eufaula. Alan's contentment was found in his love for Jesus Christ. He was a pillar of the Resurrection Free Methodist Church in Warr Acres, where he served as treasurer for many years. Alan shared the gospel with his characteristic good humor. In retirement, Alan volunteered in his community by driving the elderly and disabled to medical appointments. Alan truly had a servant's heart.
