Most of my memories of Uncle Allen are of him laughing or singing but the last few times I saw him,I seen more. He seemed weighted down with cares and very tired. I hope he found peace for what was troubling him and I’m sure we all will remember his smiles and songs. My prayers are with his kids, brothers, and sister (my aunt, uncles,Dad, and cousins).
My sympathy to all of Allen\’s family,friends and everyone else he touched on his journey of life here on earth. May you all find comfort in the fact of knowing he one day, can run like the wind with a smile on his face and love in his heart, anrun like the wind
