Serita, Angeline, and Family,

We are shocked and sadden to hear of Allen's passing. We were looking at some of our picture albums last week and found some pictures of our get togethers years ago and saw one of Allen. We were wondering where he moved to and how he was doing. We really liked Allen, he was always friendly, jolly, and smiling. Our prayers are with you and all his family. We know God will give you the strength you will need during this difficult time. We pray that you will find comfort in the good memories you have of him.

God Bless,

Sam and Caroll

Allen,

Couldn't believe it when I learned of your passing. It really hit me hard. It indeed was an honor to know you and work with you on 3rd shift. You always brought a smile to my face and our jestings and the fun we had will never be forgotten. My life is truly enriched because I knew you. Rest in Peace my friend and blessings on your family.

Allen,

Working with you on 3rd shift, I saw more of you than I did my own family. In doing so, I really got to know you and consider you a very good friend. My life is better and brighter for having known you and I will fondly remember you. Take care Allen and may you rest in Peace. God's blessings to you and your family.
