Not enough words can describe what I’m feeling about losing you… Your memories will remain with us forever. Love you!
RIP & Love Mr. Hisey!
I so enjoyed working with you at North Marion High. Thank you for your friendship and all you did for kids. 💖🙏💖
Prayers for the family! Allan will be missed by many! He loved his family and his school! He was a good person with a good heart!
Our deepest sympathy to Mr. Hisey's family during this difficult time. May his memory be a blessing to all who knew him. He will be missed.
When I was young and needed a positive role model, he was that man for me. He pushed me to be a better wrestler, student and more importantly a better person. The wrestling trips our team would go on were always the highlight of my young life. I will always be thankful for the positive impact he had on my life. The world has lost a great man!
Going to miss you my friend
From you being my dean at Forest to letting me capture memories of you and Mrs. Ginnie, we will truly miss you. We will always remember your happiness and how you lived life to the fullest. High five Mr. Hisey ❤️
Praying for your entire family…Lost but NEVER forgotten 🙏♥️🙏♥️
My deepest condolences ….. Mr. Hisey was a very nice person & seemed so positive about everything. He always had a smile on his face whenever I saw him & we got to chat for a few moments. I will miss him….
Allan, you were such a great man and will be missed dearly! I will never forget your famous words when we met to discuss issues: “Let the healing begin”. It was always successful and your dedication was priceless!

Isaiah 41:10 Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.
Alan gave me confidence after the Forest disaster when so many others in charge were villainous and unsupportive. He was funny and sweet and incredibly organized. He will be greatly missed and I am so sorry that his family didn't have enough time with him. Lots of love and support to you all. 🙏💞
I am so grateful to have met Mr. Hisey and to have had meaningful conversations about the well-being of the students at our school. Mr. Hisey was a great principal.
My condolences his family and friends, every interaction I’ve ever had with him was positive and I will remember how much he cared about the staff and especially the students.
He was such a good man and had the students in his best interests. I hope he knew the love he shared continues to grow here at Wildwood Middle High. Rest in peace Mr. Hisey.
With deepest sympathy to the Hisey family. Allan definitely brought a light and laughter to the room. It was great working with him at Forest High School.

My deepest condolences to all the family and friends of Allan Hisey. My thoughts and prayers will be with everyone while each of you are going through this difficult time. One saying that has helped me through the loss of my sister is "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord."

You fought the good fight brother!! Thank you for all that you did and the kids lives you affected! We will see each other again. God bless you and your family. Rest easy buddy!
Mr. Hisey was one of the greatest administrators I ever worked for. He truly made a difference in the lives of the teachers and students he worked with. So sorry to hear this news. My deepest sympathy to his loved ones.
How unfortunate, you left us before our time.
There was so much love to give and receive from this loving, caring gentle soul.Our memories are profound & we will cherish them forever.
Rest in peace you were more than a cousin to us.
To the Mitchells, my beloved American family, to Ginnie my American sister, to the huge community of people missing Allan, I express my deepest condolences and affection.
He meant so much more to me than just a coach. Coach Hisey was a mentor, a teacher, a role model, and even a father figure. He cared about making us the best wrestlers we could be, but more than that, he was always focused on helping us reach our full potential as human beings.
Coach Hisey pushed us to our limits, even scaring us sometimes, but he always let us know that he loved us. Looking back, he was the first man outside my family who told me he loved me, and he showed me how to lead with my heart. He even introduced me to rock music, and gave me the opportunity to be the team captain. He supported me in my other endeavors, like football, and showed me what authentic leadership looks like – not just by talking about it, but by actually living it.
I recently had a conversation with my Wing Commander, who also had a similar experience with wrestling. It made me realize that I wanted to go back to Ocala and tell Coach Hisey how much he meant to me, and how his love and sacrifice helped shape me into the man I am today. But now, I won't get that chance.
Coach Hisey, thank you for everything you did for me. You were one of a kind, and your legacy lives on through me and all the other lives you touched. I know you're looking down on us, and I just want you to know that I love you, man!
To your wife & family.. So sorry for you all lost. During my troubled days at Forest High, if nobody else cared to help me stay out of trouble, it was Mr Hisey. My senior year was the best year & it always felt amazing walking in the discipline office almost every day —not bcus I was in trouble but to simply check in with Mr Hisey & say “I’m finally doing it, no trouble”. He would be like okay keep it up & that was all the motivation I needed for the school year & just as sure, I graduated with no discipline issues that year. I send my condolences to you all & may God guide you with the strength you all will need to get through this grievous time.
Hisey family,
I am saddened by Allan's passing. He had a larger than life personality. Every time I saw him, he never faileed to make me laugh.
I fondly remember the days that I'd take the "littles" to Dennis' softball games. Allan was always by the dugout watching every move. I will treasure those memories and always smile when I hear Allan's name.
You are in my thoughts and prayers. Much love.
MMH
Rest in peace and cavort in heaven forever, my dear “third child.”
Saddened to hear that MR.Hisey passed away. Prayers for his loved ones.Seath and i will miss seeing your smiling face.
Heart dropped when I heard the news as I thought of the family & school that lost its leader. Rest in Peace Mr. Hisey & thank you for serving these young men & ladies. Jenni, we are thinking of you & yours as you fight through these times.
Much Love, Mark Streit & Family.
Mr. Hisey was the best princable I have ever had and he will surely be missed by all of us at Wildwood Middle High School.😔🥰
Always fun…those are my memories of you, a cousin who always had a smile and was looking fot the next laugh. Noble como un leon….siempre fuerte pero en realidad, un teddy bear…you will be missed, Godspeed, bro.
My sweet third child. The one I called “this baby is mine”. I remember how beautiful you were as a baby, cute as a button as a toddler, smart as a whip and mischievous but not in a bad way. Such a cute kid! That smile was always the same—it never changed. I loved you then and always will. Rest in peace my son, you are with your daddy now. Love, Mami
To the family, I would like to extend my condolences to you all, espically to his mother, wife and children, may God strengthen you all in your own way. Mr. Hiesy was my principal a wonderful person, always had a smile on his face daily. My years working with him were challenging and rewarding, he will be missed but not forgotten. Blessings✝️
he was an kind hearted man and very funny he was my principal it broke everyone heart to hear about the passing of this man he loved wwmhs and wished the best for everyone here we loved him too. LOVE WWMHS
WILD CATS i am an 8th grader who took the time to write this about his beloved principal.
Mr. Hisey was such a great friend to my students with speical needs while he was here at Forest. He made sure to visit often with them, as well call them by name and really connect with them. He will be missed but loved by all…
I just wanted to write a little note to Mrs. Hisey and Mr. Hisey's children. I want you to know how much he inspired me. Myself and Officer Acevedo worked together with Principal Hisey on the Inaugural Wildwood Food Drive. He made the announcements and encouraged the kids to participate. The ESE classes were the kids who collected the most cans, and won a pizza party. He helped organize the day for me to come pick up everything in my CSI Van which was spilling over with cans when it was all over. He took the picture for us to put on the PD Facebook so everyone could see the kids and how much they collected. And when it came time for the Pizza Party, he personally helped me pass out the pizza to all the kids. He also took a picture of this event after we walked the kids back to their classroom. He made sure that the ESE teachers also had their share of the pizza as well. All of this was just amazing, as he was the Principal (of an entire MIDDLE/HIGH school!) and I'm sure he had so many other things he could be doing. But what was the most inspiring was that he knew every kid's name in those classes. He told me all about them, and how smart they were. And it was just incredible. You had an amazing person in your life and I just want you to know how blessed I felt to have known him, even if just for that little while.
This hit very near and dear to my heart because I lost my Dad at the age of 12 to cancer. He was 43. I want you to know that I'll be praying for all of you and if you ever need anything, please don't hesitate to reach out. May God bless you and your family! I know God loved Principal Hisey and that he also loves all of you very much.

As a student of Wildwood Middle High school rest in Peace Allan Hisey
Mr. Hisey was an amazing principal, he cared for all of us and always made sure we were good. I'll miss his jokes, and definitely his smile.
One of the best men/coaches I have ever had in my life. He was my head coach in 2004-2008 for wrestling at Forest High School. Words can’t even describe what all he did to impact me in a positive manner. He will always be remembered and NEVER FORGOTTEN. GOD BLESS YOU COACH HISEY 🙏
