For all of you that never had the chance to spend an hour with my brother let me tell you something….he held the stage with his quick humor, unwavering beliefs and most importantly his unselfishness to help anyone that need it

He lived his short life by his own convictions while never wavering on his love for his family.

I will miss you so dearly my brother may you now find that peace you was searching for.

Love you so much

Let me tell you about my brother Allen….

He lived his life on his own terms however never wavering from his dedication to his family or closest friends. In a gathering he was the center of everyone’s laughter due to his never ending humor and quick comebacks. He always tried to act like he was a bad ass but on the contrary he would give a hand to anyone needing it no matter his own needs. His love for his family was of the up most importance to him.

You will be greatly missed my brother may you find that peace at last. I love you my brother you enjoy rest.

I am very sorry to hear of Allen’s passing. I went to school with Allen, we played little league together. I have our Little League Team photo on my Facebook page as my cover photo for any of his Family that want to download it. Allen was always a kind hearted kid in school. I am so very sorry to his family. May he rest in piece.
