Julia and Rita, I just heard about Larry's passing and want to tell you how sorry I am to hear this. He was my boyfriend in high school. You may remember me; we renewed our friendship about 10 years ago and I used to drive to Bellingham to see him and he drove here to Tacoma to see me a few times. The last time I saw him was shortly after he bought his home in Ferndale and left the mobile home. I'm so surprised Chuck Gregory didn't contact me to let me know. My sister who still lives in Yakima called to tell me yesterday. He was a great guy and a very good looking guy when we were in high school. He'll be missed. My thoughts are with you both. I'm glad he got to experience having grandkids.

I'm sorry I didn"t know Larry Allen as an adult as much as I remember him when I was a kid. My favorite memory I think about very often is when Larry would play his guitar and sing the tune of "House of the rising sun". You will be missed but never forgotten. Delores Filbeck Kennedy

Jarita and Julia, I am so sorry for your loss. You probably do not remember me but I used to babysit you way back when. You were both delightful and I loved to be around you. My thoughts and prayers go out to you during this difficult time.

Everyone talks about his laugh and sense of humor....What a great way to be remembered ! Anyone that knew him could not forget his laugh and knew that his kids and grandkids were his whole world. He will be missed.
