Dear Sue and Lynn,

I was so sorry to see that your Dad had passed away. We had been out of town and read it in the paper when we got back.

Thoughts and Prayers are with you and your families.

To the Family of Mr. Ed Allen,

I will never forget Mr. Allen's kindness, patience and understanding of the 4-Hers here in Roanoke County. He was always so helpful, and he made each of us feel special. My prayers are with each of you at this time.

Sincerely, Lynn Ellen McCutchen Thompson

Sue and Lynn,
I worked with your dad 40 years ago as a part of the Roanoke County Extension staff in Salem. It was my first job right out of college. He was a wonderful mentor-offering good professional advice, always willing to help out and always having a kind word for everyone. He was especially proud of the two of you. My thoughts and prayers are extended to you and your families.

Sue & Lynn & Families:
Mr. Allen was a very special patient here at FMC Friendship Dialysis Center.
He was always so pleasant and I always
enjoyed chatting with him. I know he was a good man and the staff here will certainly miss him. My thought and prayers go out to each of you - his daughters and your families. You will always have all those "special memories" I'm sure you have of your Dad to relive over and over in your minds. I'm sure he was a very special
Dad to...

Sue and Lynn, I will sure miss Uncle Dick, he was a wonderful Uncle. I'll never forger all the Truck Rides he took us on, I was telling my husband Mac this morning at Breakfast that when we were kids at Grandma's Farm after Lunch Uncle Dick would have the keys in hand and shout "Y'all want to go for a truck ride" and we would all run for the truck and get treated to an awesome truck ride and penny candy and soda at Parkers Store. My thoughts and prayers are with you both!

My thoughts and prayers are with you Sue and Lynn.

Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you during this time of loss. We have many wonderful memories of your Dad, especially the Woodford reunions at the 4-H Center many years ago. Your Dad was instrumental in helping keep the family ties connected. May your memories help bring comfort today and in the days ahead.
