Our prayers go out to everyone on the passing of Allen. We know it has been a trying time during Allens illness and not knowing from one day to the next when God was going to call him home. But he is at home now with no more sickness or pain to endure. May God fill this void in your lives as you heal from losing Allen, but remember he is in Gods care having a reunion with others already up there. Clyde & Joyce Lusk
