Charles "Manley" Allen

We owe our life to Manley. He introduce Bunkie my wife of 59 years to me. We both had graduated from university and were traveling salesman. We had an agreement if I met a girl 5'5" and over he had first choice to date her. If a girl was 5"4" and under I had first choice. Bunkie was 5"4" It was all Manley fault I married Bunkie. If fact he was my best man. We really love the guy. Condolences to all his friends and family. Ed & Bunkie

Manley was a good golf cart buddy always asking how I was doing. Always offering to help. Gone way too soon. He will be missed.

During my year as interim minister at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Santa Fe, I enjoyed Manley's steady support and appreciated his love for the institution. He was always curious, social and outgoing, a true asset to the community. He danced through life.

I always looked forward to seeing Manley in class at the Rec Center classes. He was an inspiration! Always cheerful, loving and kind to everyone. He will be missed greatly.

Manley and us share and love Miles our grandson. He will be missed, but the great memories family and friends have of him will keep him remembered for years.
Our condolences to Marisa, Joe and Miles and Paul Shannon, Morgan and Sam

Manley was always an upbeat gentleman. Sharing our mutual New Mexico history over a glass of wine was always illuminating.

Condolences to the family. Manley was tireless in his efforts for Santa Maria El Mirador. His enthusiasm will be remembered forever.

The Allen's were next door neighbors in Atlanta when our children were growing up. We had many good times. One special memory is the Thanksgiving dinner in the woods dressed as a Pilgrim or an Indian. I will always remember Manley's laugh which would make you laugh when you heard it. Time passes too quickly but we do have precious memories.

To the Family of Charles "Manley" Allen: My thoughts and prayers are with all of you with the passing of Manley. I worked with Manley at Santa Maria El Mirador and it was a pleasure to know him. My condolences. Carmen M. Rodriguez
