We can't believe it's been 7 years already since you left us all. We all often talk and reminisce about the" Claussen Days" with very fond memories. Thanks for being there always for my boys "Alvin", we miss you...RIP

Dear Jan, Brian and Brooks,
I am so very sorry for your loss. Every time I walk by your onetime home on Main Street, the lush profusion of flowers reminds me that your family once lived there. His legacy lives on, green and growing. May you find comfort and peace.

Allen Crane taught me so much. I worked at Claussens in high school back in the late 70's early 80's. I bought my first car, and Allen Crane taught me how to keep it running! When I ran my go cart into the front of a greenhouse, he helped me fix it, (the cart and the greenhouse) :). I owe almost all of the mechanical aptitude that I possess today to just listening to Allen Crane and everything he taught me. I know a lot of my questions he probably thought were dumb, but he always answered them, and in the process passed his knowledge on to the next generation.. I have passed this knowledge on as well... RIP Allen :)

Jan and Family,
I will always remember the years when we were mixed up teenagers and the time we spent working and admiring Allen's genius as he could fix anything! If we had a problem or question, we went and asked Allen as he pretended to act like he didn't care.....we knew he did. God bless your family as you are in our thoughts and prayers.
