Dear Smith Family,

We look back with fond memories to sweet visits with Allen & Joyce. We will miss our friend Allen, but know he is enjoying the associations of those who are on the other side greeting him.

We express our love and hope the spirit may bring peace at a difficult time.

To the Allen Smith family: And my dear friends, Paul, Teresa, RaNae what a loss of a dear Father and brother. I worked with Allen at the Draper Historical Society. I am so glad that I had the opportunity to get to know him. He could tell quite the stories of when his Dad was sheriff. He loved his horses and his rides in the mountains. Rest in peace my dear friend.

To Allen's family and friends, please take comfort in each other during this sad time. My deepest sympathies go out to you all.
