Mark Allen

Rest easy Mark.You were a kind good man from a great family.

Mark, what an athlete,what a character, you did the best Frank Sinatra imitation I've ever heard. Think of you often.R.I.P. brother.

Mr. Allan you were one of the best teachers that I had throughout school. Whenever I reflect on all the old times when I was back at Deady you are one of the 1st I think of. I was lucky enough to have you for 2 years at Deady and I wouldn't change that for anything. I was finally able to get my GED while out of work due to being laid off for Covid-19, and I know you would be proud of that. You would go out of your way for your students and you did the same for me my 8th grade year taking me...

My goodness, I just learned of Mark's passing. Too many wonderful memories to recall just one. R.I.P. my friend. Mark Warriner

Its been 11 years since you left us. You where a great teacher and I remember how heartbroken a lot of us felt when we heard the news. Big Bird thank you for everything you did even now as I started to have a sense of failure I remembered your words just be yourself and keep getting up every time you fall because the only one who can keep you from getting up is you. Thank you

I was so saddened to hear this week of Mark's loss. I was lucky enough to have taught with Mark for 9 years. A better friend to the kids and his colleagues could not be found. The memorial service today reminded me of all the tasks he did to help take care of the kids, the jokes he played on all of us and the many great times we had sitting in our lawn chairs in his back yard. I couldn't help but wonder what happened to the moose head? I hope he says, "Hey", to Larry for me.
