Our heartfelt condolences to our dear friends Paul, Linda, and Jack and to the entire Bloom family. To our eyes Linda's dad, Mr. Allen Bloom, appeared to have a quiet strength about him. We hope this strength is passed on to and sustains his family during this trying time.
Our prayers are with you.

My sincere condolences to Norma and family. Allan and I were classmates at South Side HS. He enjoyed an exemplary professional, political and miltary career, yet he was one of the most humble, unassuming persons I have ever known.

Few men have ever walked this Earth that had the same fine character that Allan possessed.
Those of us who knew him were surely blessed.

Through more than 25 years of friendship with their daughter Linda, I came to know and love Allan and Norma Bloom, and always enjoyed their company. Through episodes of prolonged and difficult illness, Mr. Bloom always maintained the dignity, wit, strength and quiet compassion that were hallmarks of his character. I cherished his wisdom and his counsel and will miss both dearly.
My love and sympathy to Norma, Linda, and Laura
