My wife said, "I am Marcia Seifert". Crazy!!! We never met prior to that day. Thus started a family friendship that lasts through today. We did not know that were we 5th cousins, once removed, or that we both were born and raised in Bethlehem, PA. Alan graduated from Moravian College and I graduated from Lehigh Univ., both in Bethlehem. Alan died of lymphoma on the 23rd of May 2002 and I was honored to speak at his memorial service.
