HOPE YOU ARE OK IN HEAVEN

Solitaire and Family,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

Eva & Steve Herman

My condolences to Solitaire and the family. This is the first time I ever saw Allen with short hair in this picture. Allen was a brother hippie when I met him in the 70s, he took me on a mind expanding road trip from Ohio to Baltimore MD when I was 16 to pick up his much coveted 34 Dodge truck. Introduced me to his friend Cowboy who played steel guitar in Pink Flamingos, went to several restaurants where he had worked and was treated as royalty. I remember it like it was yesterday. He also...

So sorry he is gone he was such a Caring and Friendly man and so witty . He will be miss .
My thoughts and prayers are with the family .

Allen, my friend, may you rest in peace. We will miss you and I truly enjoyed your teasing me every time I saw you. My prayers go out to the family and friends, may God provide you with the comfort you need during this time of grief.

My condolences to the family. Allen was truly one of a kind and will be missed. Rest in peace my friend...

My Katie and I are deeply sadden by the news and passing of ALLEN.
HE WAS AT OUR HOME ON THANKSGIVING DAY EVE..... LITTLE DID WE KNOW THAT, THAT WILL IT BE THE LAST TIME EVER THAT WE WOULD LAUGH AND BREAK BREAD WITH HIM. ALLEN ,WELL MISS YOU COMING BY KATIES CATERING EATING THAI FOOD. WE WONDER WHY HE DID NOT COME DURING CHRISTMAS LIKE LAST 3 YEARS. WE FIGURE HE WENT TO LOUISIANA WITHOUT US AGAIN.
WE WILL MISS OUR FRIEND

REST IN PEACE ....FRIEND

RUBEN,...
