Allen followed in his father and older brother’s footsteps and served twelve years in the United States Coast Guard, then continued his military expertise as a mechanic through his working career. Allen loved his family, he was a son, brother, uncle, and father. He loved his science fiction movies, caring for his animals, a great novel, and of course some classic World of Warcraft. He cherished time spent with family and friends, fishing, hunting, and a challenging game of Chess and playing games/cards. He loved his Peanut Butter and Coffee. He loved to sit at the camp fire, even in the winter. Allen’s belief in God was unshakeable, he would regale anyone that would listen about his faith. Allen would reminisce about spending time with his siblings, hunting for crawdads as a child, spending time on the family land, and eating a Clark bar with his Dad.
