I feel so sad that Allen's life was cut short. I have so many happy memories of him that I will hold on to and cherish as my own. It was impossible to be around Allen and not have a smile on your face. He brought the gift of joy and laughter to all those who knew him.
Carter and Tanner, one of the last conversations I had with your Dad was about the both of you. He told me that you two were his greatest accomplishments in life. He loved you two more than anything and was so very proud of you. I pray that as you go through life, you will never lose sight of how much you meant to him. I am so sorry that you have lost your Dad.
Michael, you have lost so much. My heart breaks for you. You are not alone. God has blessed you with your own beautiful family. Cling to God and his promises and your sweet family. We are here for you too! Love you!

Michael and Family,

I was very sorry to hear about Allen. As you remember, I coached y'all in Little League so many years ago at Westside Athletic Assocation. I will not be able to attend the viewing or the service as we are headed to a Navy Reunion tomorrow in Charleston, SC.

Victoria and I wish you and your family all the best in days ahead. God Bless you.

It has been an honor to have known Allen. I have never met someone who loved life, and enjoyed life, more than Allen. His spirit was infectious, and it was impossible to not feel joy, good feelings and happiness when he was with you.

I spoke to him just last week, and heard the same love of life in his voice. He referred to himself as my "favorite client" -- and he is right! We will miss him.

Michael & Family , We are very sorry to hear about Allen. I ran into him about a year ago at a restaurant and I'm glad we had a chance to visit again. Prayers for you for comfort as you grieve in the coming days. Know that Mama is just a phone call away and she was so shocked as we all were to hear of his passing. She will forever cherish the time she had with both of you when you were little boys. She told me yesterday that she used to change your diapers in daycare and she has known ya'll since you were 2 yrs old. Take Care & God Bless all of you.

Rebecca & Boys - We are thinking of you and your precious boys and will continue to pray for you in the coming days. Take Care & God Bless your family.
