Dear Monica and Kathleen,



I was extremely saddened to hear of the loss of Allan. He was always a very nice guy to me and to every one of us who invaded your home and appreciated the laughter, warmth, and hospitality there. I hope and trust that God watches over him now.



Sincerest Sympathies --- Mark Filip and Family.

Al, you will be truly missed. The promises will not be the same without you. You were one the few voices of reason and wisdom. Seeing you always made us smile. The world has been a sunnier place with you in it. Even though we'll miss you, we feel comforted knowing you are up there looking over us (probably laughing and making jokes). P.S. We'll take care of the next dinner check!

To the Malec Family,



My deepest sympathies to you on the terrible loss of Allan. We worked together at Humes FH, and he was always a joy and pleasure with which to work. I spoke to Allan about a year ago, just checking up on him and his bike and the birds. He was a kind and considerate man and one I am proud to say was a friend of mine. He will be missed by all. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless Allan Malec. I'll miss you.

All I can say is Al has been such a great friend to us, he has always made time to be with his friends and share some of the most important times in our lives. We will always cherish Al's memory and he will always be with us while we ride the open roads.

Please accept our deepest sympathies for your loss, our hearts go out to you.

Malec family,

We both worked with Allan at Malec Funeral Home, both locations and we sure will miss Allan.

He was very much "A Gentleman"&"A Considerate" person.

His passing is a loss to us all.

Allan, you were one of the neatest people to come into my life. We had a lot of good times, but one of my favorite memories is our beaver hunting adventure with my family in WI! I learned so much from you & you helped me grow in so many ways. I have so many wonderful things in my life now & a lot of that I can thank you for. Although our time was short, I enjoyed sharing my life with you & being part of yours. You will most definitely be missed by many. My thoughts & prayers are with the Malec family.

Do not stand at my grave and weep

I am not there, I do not sleep

I am the thousand winds that blow,

I am the diamond glints on snow

I am the sunlight on ripened grain,

I am the gentle Autumn's rain.

When you awaken in the morning hush,

I am the swift uplifting rush

of quiet birds in circled flight.

I am the soft star that shines at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry,

I am not there, I did not die.

Although I met Al only a few times, I now feel I know something that wasn't mine.
