RAYMOND — Alan E. Whitten, 67, of Raymond, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, March 3, 2019.

Alan was an amazing husband, father and grandfather. Family was everything to Alan!

Alan was born in Portland on Aug. 9, 1951, the son of Herbert and Leona Whitten. He graduated from Portland High School in 1970, and then served in the Coast Guard for four years. Alan married his wife, Kathy in 1971, and they raised three wonderful daughters. Alan and Kathy owned and operated Alan Whitten Excavating. Alan worked tirelessly and had an unbelievable work ethic that he instilled in his children. He could do the impossible with any machine and make it look like he was playing in a big sandbox. Alan always had a smile on his face as he worked.

Alan is survived by his wife Kathy of 47 years; daughters, Kimberly Plummer of Raymond and Martha Ladd of Sebec; and seven grandchildren.

He is predeceased by his precious daughter, Amy Herrick; and his parents, Herbert and Leona Whitten.
