So long my brother, my friend. Alan Batdorf was a good man. He taught me about “love and respect”.

A fun sense of humor, a laugh that made his belly bounce, time on the ranch with the cows, races at Hohenwald Speedway, and sharing Moon Pies when we were spending time together… just a few things I will fondly remember of my uncle Alan. Rest peacefully, my friend, and enjoy the time with our loved ones who are with you in Heaven.

He did more for a larger family than most people ever will.
He did more for me than anyone else ever will
