Alan Yeater, attended the same high school, 6770 Runkles Rd. Mt. Airy MD 21771, You are not forgotten after 45 years. Almost Forty-five years after his death, he is not forgotten by those who knew him when he attended West Snyder High School in Beaver Springs, Pennsylvania, and for the relationship he had with a wonderful girl from my hometown, McClure, Pennsylvania. He was known for the way he would enjoy driving around town in his auto. The last time I saw him, he was proudly wearing his Army uniform while attending a sporting event in the high school gym. He was a great guy! He is missed by all who knew him. Sep 25, 2010.
