Condolences to the family of Allan. He and Niza were some of my oldest friends in my life. It is a shock that God took him so soon. I guess Heaven needed a new groundskeeper. Rest in peace old friend.

My heartfelt sympathy in the loss of your loved one! Allen was one of finest Christian men I’ve ever known! He was so very dedicated to his God, family, church and Masonic affiliations! Always busy with a big “to do” list! A couple weeks back, I drove by the church and there was Allen in the front working on something! I waved and drove on! Heading back I found him still there in another spot! I stopped and ask him if he realized how hot it was? Of course his answer was yes! But he said “ I’m putting this metal post near this culvert and driveway asphalt, in hopes that whoever is cutting this corner too close, and breaking the asphalt, will see it and move over”! Now mind you the post is grass green with many colorful flowers on it!!! It can’t be missed! Each time you drive into our church drive, look for it and remember the love that Allen had for his God and church family! I Shall miss him, but I know that Gods grass (if he has any) will have the best groundskeeper EVER!

Allen was such a gentleman, and at our funeral home he was always willing to help with the Masonic services in any way that he could. His country, his church, and his Masonic brethren will treasure his service and kindness.
