Gary Allen Obituary

GARY JOSEPH ALLEN February 13, 1946 - July 13, 2016 Gary Joseph Allen of Hemet, California was born in Long Beach, CA. He was raised by his mother Fleurette Allen and his grandmother Emerentienne Girard Daigneault. An only child, Gary grew up with his cousins Yvette, Jeanne and Vincent Daigneault, but his favorite was his Uncle Joseph. Gary entered the United States Air Force and served one term before being honorably discharged. He had a varied career including positions with Signal Oil, Northrop Grumman and also served as a director of Northrop Grumman Credit Union. He worked in real estate for builders and brokers from 1973-1980 in Texas and Orange County, California. His last position was working as an Assistant Estate Manager for Huguette Clark's estate Bellosguardo in Santa Barbara, California. Gary was always a car buff! He loved collecting big cars - the Buicks, Cadillacs and Chryslers - and owned over 200 cars in his lifetime. He was proud of his scale models of some of the more unique vehicles. He loved travel, good food and wine, and dancing with his beautiful wife Anna. Gary was also a member of Hemet Valley Baptist Church which he attended until his illness kept him at home. Gary went home to be with Jesus peacefully in his sleep at his home in Hemet, CA. He is survived by his wife of 5 years, Anna, whom he loved with all of his heart, 4 step-children, 12 step-grandchildren, 23 great grandchildren and 2 great-great grandchildren. He is also survived by his former wife of 35 years, Mrs. Linda Lee Maciag ( Escondido) and his beloved cousins Jeanne Ronay (George), Yvette Wilson (Daniel), and Vincent Daigneault (Jan) as well as numerous friends and loved ones.

My sincerest sympathies in your great loss. Many feel that death is a natural part of life, but we were created to enjoy earth's beauty forever, not a limited amount of years. God "put eternity" into our hearts, the desire to live forever. (Ecclesiastes 3:11).

Our Dearest Gary.......,

Words can not express the loss that Judy and I are feeling at this time.

You were the Brother that I never had and as we knew each other for some almost 60 years going back to the days at the Belmont Pier on the beach in Long Beach, to you being in our wedding in 1965, to the countless nights checking out what would be the next possible car buy at John Osborne's lot in Signal Hill, to those Friday and Saturday nights at O' Connors, and then....., off to Tommy's after 2:00 AM for those sinfull double cheeseburgers laced with a stack of onion rings.

And then to fast forward to August 2014 when we went to New Mexico to buy my 1958 Chrysler, who would have ever thought that I would be here now trying to say all of this and remain composed, thus having lost my best and dearest life time friend and I just hope and pray that this relationship will continue on the other side as we are taught to believe in that, the next chapter of the Lord's Plan.

You will always be loved and missed Gary.

Larry and Judy French
