HELPER- Our beloved husband, dad, son, grandpa, brother and dear friend, Alan Craig Saccomano, age 56, passed away peacefully at home with his family after a brave battle with cancer.
He was born June 17, 1950 in Price, Utah to Dominic "Blackie" Saccomano and Hazel Shuler.
Married Renee Dimick, Oct. 24, 1970 at St. Anthony's Catholic Church in Helper.
Alan was a lifelong resident of Helper and graduate of Carbon High School Class of 1968. He was a former employee of the Utah Railway for 10 years and he just received recognition for 20 years of service with the Utah Department of Transportation at the Colton Shed. He loved pushing snow up Scofield and loved the "white knuckle ride" he got from pushing snow over Eccles Canyon.
His love for his family was unconditional. We were all number one in his life and everything he did was for us. There are no words to express how much we all love him and will miss him dearly.
Alan's passion was riding motorcycles and he fulfilled one of his dreams by riding across the United States to see Niagra Falls and then onto Nashville. While traveling by himself, Alan said that he was never alone because of all the wonderful and kind people he met along the way. He was able to make friends wherever he went.
His lifelong dream was to ride into the sunset with his wife Renee. Everytime they passed a couple on a motorcycle he would comment on how he wanted that for their retirement years.
They started the dream early by taking numerous trips on the new Goldwing. The most memorable trip was going down the Oregon Coast with their friends. Alan always said, "It wasn't the destination, it was the ride!"
Alan is survived by his loving wife of 36 years, Renee; daughter, Kristy (Joey) Penovich; sons, Brian (Carla) Saccomano, Kevin (Meranda) Saccomano; mother, Hazel Saccomano; brother, Tim Saccomano; grandchildren, Joey and Jordan Penovich, Bailey and Carson Saccomano, Cameron, Dominic and Alan Ryan Saccomano.
Preceded in death by his father Blackie Saccomano.
Funeral Mass, Mon., Dec. 18, 2006, 10 a.m., St. Anthony Catholic Church in Helper. Vigil service, Sunday evening 7 p.m. Mitchell Funeral Home in Price. The family was at Mitchell's Sunday evening at 6 p.m. Committal service, Mt. View Cemetery, Helper.
