Sue, Cheryl, Barre and Leslie,

I learned of Allen's passing by email from Frank Lucas and wish I could have joined you at his memorial service; however, I am in England with our family until October.

I especially remember Allen's 3 girls from when he brought them by the office as they were teenagers. I remember how proud he was of his daughters and I sure he was of his extended family.
Though I saw Allen infrequently since he left our firm, I remember him as a very warm and fun-loving friend.
I know you all miss him very much.
Very sincerely,
Vito Pascullis

Sue, I'm sad to know that I will never again be able to sit with Allen and you on the back porch and just talk about "southern life". Allen will always be remembered as a very gentle and warm friend, full of life and love -especially for you -but also for his family and friends. You and your family are in my prayers. Linda Gentry, Lexington, S.C.

Allen and I were classmates in the Charleston High class of 1953. After that we only saw each other at reunions. He was always a quite sincere individual that was very easy to be around. Sure wish I had had the opportunity to be with him more, but our paths went different directions. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Suzanne, Cheryl, Barre, & Leslie, My thoughts and prayers are with you. Uncle Allen was a great guy and will be missed by many. Kindest, Millie Hunt Drolet

Dear Suzanne and family,
I am so sorry to hear of the death of Allen. Even though I had not seen either of you for a while, you both entered my mind frequently. He was indeed a very special man and touched many lives with his soft spoken Charlestonian accent and caring. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Sincerely,
Cheryl Hildreth
