Dear Allen family, we were very sorry to hear of your dad's passing. I first met your dad when he came to USA in 1968 and he was assigned to me as a faculty advisor. Much later, when I joined the faculty, I always found him to be a kind, well reasoned colleague who always expressed understanding and concern for others. He made many contributions to so many lives; he will be greatly missed.

Allen family: I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I knew him first as Dr. Allen when I was a student at the university, then as Larry after I married Dr David Dean--you had a great man in your family. He did so much for South Alabama. David and I thought very highly of Larry. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
