Dear Friends and Fans,

On November 2nd, 2024, Alan passed away peacefully in his sleep, at the age of 82, after a year of mounting health challenges. He was so appreciative of all the people in his life – friends, fans, and colleagues – and he continued to maintain friendships and respond to requests for autographs until the very end. He was also a committed mentor to many people trying to find their path in show business. He once wrote:

"What makes us choose the lives we live? Many forces shape and mold us. I was fortunate enough to be one of the few lucky people to have a special dream. I was even more fortunate to have the experiences necessary to keep that dream alive. Taking risks, allowing yourself to fail, keeping a sense of humor are all part of keeping a dream alive. May the parts of your childhood ignite into a dream that burns bright. And with luck, support, friends and hard work, may the torch from that dream guide you through your life."

Sending love and blessings,

The Rachins Family
