It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Alan Schoenstein, who tragically took his own life at his home in McCloud on Sunday, May 12, 2024.
Originally from San Francisco, Alan and his wife have been cherished members of the McCloud community for many years. Alan proudly served his country in the U.S. Navy starting in 1958, holding the position of Postmaster on the USS Los Angeles. He also had a distinguished career as an executive at Wells Fargo Bank. Beyond his professional achievements, Alan took immense pride in being a member of the renowned Schoenstein family, founders of the most successful organ-building company on the Pacific Coast. Alan’s legacy of service to his country and professional life will be remembered fondly by all who knew him.

Oh, Dorothea, I won’t intrude on your grief longer than to say I grieve with you and you have my sincerest condolences.
Dorothea,
I just learned of Alan’s passing. What a loss!
He and I were best friends for many years. We worked
together on a daily basis, ate lunch together,
played tennis together, had BNO with Barry and shared many
great memories.
I have missed him since you relocated to McCloud.
