ALLEN MARTIN Obituary

MARTIN, Allen Hanover, NH, age 81, died peacefully surrounded by the enduring love of his wife, Bonnie, on June 19, 2019 in Windsor, VT after a long, distinguished and productive life.

Allen was born in Manchester, CT on August 12, 1937, the eldest child of Richard Martin and Ruth Palmer Martin, both of whom predeceased him.

A Memorial Service and Celebration of a Life well lived will be held at the North Congregational Church in St. Johnsbury, VT, on July 21, 2019 at 2:30 with a private burial to occur at a a later date.

He was a tremendously kind, generous, smart, caring, curious, and fun loving man and his light will live on in the hearts of all who loved him forever.

In lieu of flowers, to any so inclined, it would please Allen so very much if contributions were made to the Martin-Wilson Fellowship Fund at Williams College, in support of Williams students attending Worcester College, Oxford University, in care of the Office of Planned Giving, 75 Park Street, Williamstown, MA 02167.

I admired Allen greatly for his razor sharp intellect and dry wit. Enjoyed working for him at the St. Johnsbury law office many years ago. He was very thoughtful of his staff and set the bar high. Thoughts and prayers for the family.
