Alan W. Lang
Alan Lang passed away peacefully at home on September 10, 2025, after a short and courageous battle with cancer.
Alan and his beloved wife of 51 years, Denise (Olson), made their home on an acreage near Valparaiso, Nebraska for the past 36 years. Together, they built a life rooted in love, laughter, and shared adventures—especially their cherished winters spent in their RV in Texas.
Alan found joy in fishing, restoring old vehicles, playing with his dogs, and tinkering on projects both big and small. His hands we
re always busy.
He was preceded in death by his mother Arduth (Stokes), father Myron, and sister Shirley (Hussey). He is survived by his devoted wife Denise; children Neil and Mindy; and grandchildren Morgan and Ian (Weis), who brought him immeasurable pride and joy.
A Celebration of Life is being planned for a September 27, on the family acreage, where family and friends will gather to honor Alan’s memory and the legacy he leaves behind.

He was a fine fisherman
I have wonderful memories of my Cousin Alan. He had a great sense of humor and was very caring about his family. When Alan and Denise came to vist us in Arizona he absolutely loved it and was looking forward to flying back again. I will always cherish our memories! May God rest your soul. Cindy Baier
we are saddened with Alan’s passing. Even though we only knew him for a couple of years it felt like we knew him for a lifetime. He was quite the funny guy and you never knew for sure if he was serious at times. We so much enjoyed our travels with Denise and Alan. He was a great fisherman. He was always making some contraption to make hauling fishing stuff easier and making all kinds of fishing things. He will be missed. It was hard to see him hurting from his back issues. Rest easy Alan!
Denise, Family, and Friends,
Alan was a good fishing friend here in Rockport. We shared some good times and fishing stories. We will miss him and the good times we shared.
With love,
Treva & Eric
