Aaron Allen Obituary
September 26, 1979 - November 3, 2023
Aaron Seth Allen was born on September 26th, 1979 in Phoenix, Arizona. The son of Art and Peggy Allen, Aaron grew up alongside his older sister Jenny and twin sister Karen on a farm in Laveen, Arizona. The family later moved to Yuma, Arizona where Aaron attended Gila Vista Junior High and Kofa High School.
As a kid, Aaron and Karen would spend endless hours digging holes, building tree houses and make-believing all sort of scenarios. They would stop train robberies, catch lions in pits, or build forts to defend themselves from the "bad guys". Jenny, Aaron and Karen have fond memories of stomping cotton in trailers and riding in the cotton picker with their dad in the hot summer sun. As he grew older, Aaron enjoyed diving and swimming on the Kofa swim team and raising pigs in FFA. Aaron loved dogs, especially his dog Shelby. As an adult, he had a bumpy ride, but had found his footing in the last year and was looking forward to his future.
He is survived by his father, Art Allen; sisters, Jenny Inglett (Kent) and Karen Gill (Brock) and his nieces and nephews: Chris, Nikki and Natalie Inglett; Becca, Robby, Ryan, Gabe and Kate Gill. He also had many friends who encouraged him throughout his life.
In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to one of your local recovery centers in Aaron's honor.
His dad Art, and sisters Jenny and Karen, invite friends and family to join them in a Celebration of Life Ceremony on November 17, 2023 at 4:00 pm at the Rock Church in Yuma, AZ.

I am deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Aaron, who I would consider my brother as well during the many years I spent with the Allen family. The Allen Family has always held a special place in my life, and my thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time.
Aaron's infectious grin and mischievous nature will forever be etched in my memories. He had a way of bringing joy and laughter to any situation, and his presence brightened our lives. Although we may have lost touch over the years, the time i shared and the memories we created together will always be cherished.
I find solace in knowing that he has been reunited with his beloved mom in heaven. Their spirits will watch over us, providing strength and comfort in the days to come. While we may no longer see his grin here on Earth, I believe that his spirit will continue to shine brightly, guiding and inspiring us from above
May Aaron Allen's soul rest in eternal peace. Fly high, my friend. You will be forever missed.

I met Aaron from my Niece Cheryl Armstrong! They were making a life together here in Tolleson where we live. Aaron´s life was cut short way to young! I was Peggy´s hairdresser she was introduced to me by Patty and Earl (deceased ) Petznick, & Olen and Snow Dryer! Both (deceased) We became good friends! I remember their daughter and the twins!
Shortly after the twins arrived they moved to the Farm in Yuma! We had lost touch, but my Laveen and Litchfield friends would keep me informed! They were the ones who told me of Peggy´s passing in 2021! She was an amazing Person and loved her Art, and their children! ! Please accept my Sympathies to Art, Aaron´s sisters and families. To all people in the lost of Aaron! Tom Doely

I worked with Aaron and he had an amazing ability to talk with patients even in their worst moments.We would go hands on and the patient would be in restraints a horrible experience and Aaron would comfort them and get them to relax so we cold loosen our hold.When it wad all over Aaron would show them empathy,and offer them food,or a blanket or a hug.
