Alan E. Pottinger Obituary

It is always difficult saying goodbye to someone we love and cherish. Family and friends must say goodbye to their beloved Alan E. Pottinger (Flushing, New York), who passed away at the age of 57, on September 13, 2021. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Alan E. Pottinger to show support.

While initially hesitant to join the masses on Facebook, he eventually did, and shared his beautiful prose and, during the Covid-19 pandemic, the harrowing first-hand experiences of the front-line workers with anyone lucky enough to know him and follow him.

To further honor Alan, donations in his memory can be made to Children of Bellevue (childrenofbellevue.org). On the website, please write Alan's name in the "In Memory Of" section and ask for the donation to be "restricted to" or "for child/adolescent psychiatry.". Donations by check can also be made, please write "In Memory of Alan Pottinger, and to Psychiatry" in the memo.
