Alan Richard Perez passed on May 01 . His family knew him only as a kind and mild-mannered Art Director, a designer of websites and t-shirts and concert posters, who always had the right cardigan and the right thing to say (even if it was wildly inappropriate). Alan was known for his long, entertaining stories, which he loved to repeat often. As an adult, he graduated from the College of Visual Arts and worked in several agencies around California, settling in as an Interactive Associate Creative Director. Alan was a comic book aficionado, a pop-culture encyclopedia and always the most fun person at any party. He is survived by his  sisters Erika and Nicole, current wife Norma and their son Ronald. Thank you all.
