Alan and I worked in the same department for a good number of years and was shocked to hear of his passing away this week. Alan and some of the other colleagues not only worked together, but also had our coffee breaks and lunches together, sharing jokes. One incident stands out very vividly in my mind - one lunch time he opened his brown lunch bag, which was marked "D" as he thought his wife had marked "D" meaning Dad, but hold and behold, in the bag were bones left over from the meat the night before. We had a good laugh after he realised the "D" meant the food was for the Dog and not Dad. I am not sure whether any one offered to share their lunch with him! Please accept our heartfelt condolences on the loss. May the Almighty give the family the strength to bear the loss. May he rest in peace. Jati Chabra
