Born in Washington, DC on February 2, 1955 to the late Forrest and Vivian Blankenship, Alan grew up in Macon and attended Bibb County Schools.

He was a certified gemologist and for many years owned Alan's Jewelers on Forsyth Road.
He is survived by his daughter, Sterling Blankenship, Atlanta; sister, Laura Strange (Jim), Atlanta; niece, Leslie Fisher (Rob) Atlanta; nephew, Adam Strange, Birmingham, and several aunts and cousins.
