He recently celebrated his 85th birthday with his loving family. The oldest son of Benjamin and Anne Krieff, Allan graduated from NYU - and spent over 50 years as a “mad man”, having owned and operated his own successful advertising agency in South Florida for most of his life. He created well-known campaigns for clients including Century Village (Red Buttons), Baron’s Men’s Stores and a host of real estate and retail accounts. He was highly respected in his field, won numerous awards and wrote several books about advertising. He worked hard and loved what he did. Allan is survived by his loving wife Beth of 62 years (who he adored), his best buddy Buttons (his Shih Tzu), daughter Debra Leibowitz, son David Krieff and grandchildren Brandon (Ellen) Leibowitz, Ryan Leibowitz, Benjamin Krieff and Truman Krieff. Contributions in Allan’s memory can be made to the Richard Sharpstein Humanitarian Fund at Temple Beth Sholom in Miami Beach, Florida. Allan lived a wonderful, full, interesting and happy life. He will be greatly missed.
