When I close my eyes all I see is you. When I open my eyes all I think about is you. You have been gone for 8 1/2 years but I just found out yesterday. You were my love. We were supposed to be sitting on the front porch drinking ice tea when we both retired. Why did you have to leave me so soon? You and me, me and you. You are my love. I have missed you for years. Now you´re in heaven and I am still here on earth. I love you with all my heart and soul. There will not be a day that I will not miss you. I will always remember your hugs, your kisses. I will always remember the memories that we share. I love you.

To the family:
So sorry for your loss. I knew Darren several years back. He was a good friend to me, and we lost touch with each other.. He spoke with love of his family. Especially his daughter.
Peace.

Cousin Fiona, I met you when you were 9 at cousin Jerry Babcock's camp, you were there with your father. I met with him a few years back when he visited here in Las Vegas. He told me about your musical career, not surprised as it runs in the Allen family, except for me, of course. His death is a sorrow to all of us. I hope the best for you.

Dear Fiona, I was a friend of your dad's for the last six years. I last spoke to him five days before his death. I was shocked when I learned what had happened about six weeks later. I am so very sorry for your loss. I pray that you will have peace in saying goodbye to your father.

Dear Fiona, No bond is as great as that between a parent and a child. Our deepest condolences are with you as you grieve the loss of your beloved father. May you find comfort in reading John 6:40
