I know many people are missing a special friend today. Ryan Mooney put this thoughtful memorial together for Alan Panebaker, he passed on the river on Wednesday.

Pictured above, Alan.
Words by his friend, Ryan Mooney.
"A sad time for the New England kayaking community... yet another tragic passing of someone much too young. September 19, 2012 marks the date of Alan's passing on the Upper Pemigewassett River. You were an amazing person, friend and k
ayaker. Smart, strong and funny. You were the future of river stewardship in the Northeast, its too bad too see you go. You will be missed dearly, I cant stress it enough. All of those amazing times on the river are replaying in my head constantly along with your million dollar smile and sense of humor. There were many amazing days paddling with you buddy and unfortunately they have come to an end too soon.
Keep charging bud.
My condolences to your family and Mags."
Our thoughts are with all of those who lost a friend.
