I'm saddened by Alan's passing after I read his obituary.
Alan and I were classmates @ UND-Williston in the Fall of 1975. We also crossed paths somewhere when we both played sports between Alamo and Grenora, even 4-H Club and UMV Fair.
We were enrolled in the Auto-Mechanics program and became friends.
Both of us owned and drove Chevrolet Chevelles, his was a '65 and mine was a '68.
The men that taught the classes were Gary Anderson, Bill Schnock and Leon Maki, the tool crib was managed by Max King.
Best times of our lives were there @ UND_W learning how to work on cars/trucks and having a "good time" in Williston. He was a good friend to have and I wish we'd have gotten together after school was over.
I know you're in a better place now, BTW I still have a notebook from school where I took down a description of your '65 Chevelle when you wanted to sell it back then....see you on the other side like Ozzy O. says....Mike
