In Memoriam: Remembering the Grace and Strength:
He was a Trustee of the National Community Bible Study Board, as well as serving on the National Evening Servant’s Team of CBS. Nancy and Alan raised three children in Midland, all attending Hillander School through Midland High. He was very proud of all three, and attended each of their extracurricular activities and sport events whenever possible. Besides following his children’s activities, Alan was a voracious reader, Bible student, loyal fan of the Longhorns and Dallas Cowboys, and never missed working his crossword puzzles. He had a fantastic memory and sense of humor.

He and Nancy had traveled overseas to Israel, Italy, and most recently a fabulous cruise of Canada and New England. Alan is preceded in death by both parents. He is survived by his wife, Nancy; daughter, Meredith Moffett (Wes) of Hurst, TX; daughter, Courtney Lyon (Justin) of Midland; son, Mitchell Cutler Meyers (Paige) of Knoxville, TN; granddaughters, Phoebe and Jovi Lyon and grandson, Asher Lyon, all of Midland. “Pops” will especially miss watching his precious grandchildren grow up.
