He always stood for those wronged, even if threatened. He believed in the law and was an outstanding example of how officers of the Court should be. He was there for others in need when no one was. He is missed every day.

There will never be another — His grace, wit, charm, intelligence, and above all his heart. Jack had it all. We lost something special when he passed, but Heaven gained its brightest star.

Oh my Lord I just found out about the passing of Atty Jack F Allen my heart was so sad. Atty Allen was my atty and I told him about a situation. You would have thought I was his daughter. He closed that office and we walked to the situation together he stood up for me in that situation. I never saw aanything like it. he wasn't afraid of anything. Hr stood for fairnesd honesty and truth. I will miss him. My thoughts and prayers are with my family. He treated me like family. God bless you all

I thank each one of you for the thoughtful message you have for my loving husband, Jack Allen and our family. He was a wonderful husband and a loving father to all children. He appreciated life and enjoyed people and practicing law. For the most part, challenging cases could bring the best out of him. He is dearly missed. His loving wife, Yvonne Allen

His quotes about prominent figures. His patience and ability to discuss almost anything with you. His caring and big heart . . . . There will be a void in my life and that of others who knew him. We talked all the time. I will miss that voice.
