Fran ,Joe and I are so devastated by this news.We had no idea.Allen was such a wonderful man and husband.We have such great memories of HOB and Delbert McClinton.He learned to shag for you and admittedly was better than Josephine(Allens name for Joe ) us.He loved you so much and was obviously very proud of your accomplishments.Just know that we will cherish our fun times together....from my first nail appointment,to Oriental,Topsail and Christmas parties at our home.He is probably walking and listening to Mr Peele in Heaven right now whisling and maybe wearing a Hooters tee shirt.Godspeed and our thoughts and realization that we should live life to the fullest..Joe and Angie Ferguson
