This gofundme page is being set up on behalf of my sister Heather to assist with financial needs in the wake if my brother-in-law's sudden passing . My brother-in-law Allen was taken from our family way to soon and very unexpectedly. Allen was a loving husband, father to four amazing kids, and a beloved son, brother and Uncle. Allen has dedicated his life to serving our country and community. And was proud and honored to do both. Allen is loved by many and will be incredibly missed. Anything given will go to the family to provide for my sister and her kids by covering medical bills and funeral costs. Any assistance is appreciated but not expected. If you would like to just send a note of love to the family, that’s okay too.
