Hello. My name is Chad and I am the daytime custodian at Alan’s school. I wanted you to know I’m so sorry for your loss. Alan was very special to me. He would wait until after his grade was done with lunch and then help me dump the trash almost daily. He would count down 3 2 1 and then I would dump the trash. Smiling everyday. When he was in 1st grade I would let him turn a key to the auto scrubber and push some of the buttons on the machine to help me. Once I was working on a drinking fountain in a hallway and Alan saw me and came over and held some tools for me. I will never forget Alan.
Sorry again for your loss.
Chad, thank you for sharing your stores. For someone who never had the privilege of meeting Alan Jr., your stores have painted a clear picture of who he was! I’m so sorry for your loss of a special helper and thank you for being such a great influence in his life!!
