Allan was hired by the Department of Transport in 1967 to maintain the radar equipment in Inuvik, NT. He spent several years there, was moved to Whitehorse, Fort Smith, then to Calgary. His last posting was Winnipeg where he continued in the same line of work until his retirement in 2002. Allan was a fantastic uncle to all his nieces and nephews. He joyfully cared for Mum and gave her an interesting life since returning to Manitoba. Every day they would go somewhere for a car ride and coffee. He took great pride in the home he built for himself and was always ready and willing to help someone.
