Alan Gregory

Francis

It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of Alan Gregory Francis on November 8,2026. Born on July 22,1963 to Dolores Sappier and Nelson Francis, he was the oldest of six brothers.

He was a proud member of the Penobscot Indian Nation and loved Native American powwow music- specifically the Mi’kmaq honor song. He was a member of the Local 7 Ironworkers Union, a lover of New England sports and a fan of rock music.

Alan was a proud uncle to Anjuli, Drew, and Brian; and a great uncle to four grandnephews.

Alan was an Old Town High graduate and standout in three sports- football, basketball and baseball.

Alan cared for a lot of people and always took his own direction. He was not one to hide what he was feeling- known as ‘little big man’ for his larger than life confidence and swagger.

Alan was predeceased by his father Nelson Francis; and his brothers, Keith and Kurt.

He is survived by his mother Dolores Sappier; and his brothers Aaron, Andrew and Keane Francis.
