Alan Fiala has been a member of the Region since 1973 and served as Chief of Tech as well as NA (National Administrator for Scrutineers) for many years. Alan left for awhile (but always maintained his membership) to pursue other interests one of which was as a beekeeper and when he returned to the CR events he brought along his honey. When he was no longer able to work Tech he volunteered in T&S. When Bill Scott passed away I was in touch w/ Alan and learned that he and Bill both had received their PhD’s from Yale. While not confirmed I believe he died of complications from post polio syndrome.

A memorial service is being held on Tuesday (7/1/2010) at the Murphy Falls Church Funeral Home, 1102 West Broad Street, Falls Church, VA at 10:00 a.m.
