Allen was born in Mount Laurel, NJ before moving to Levittown,PA with his family in 1958. He graduated from Neshaminy High School and attended Hofstra University but shortly made his way back home. Allen always dreamed of becoming a doctor but after working with his father at a family friends garage, he picked up interest in mechanical work and found his passion is fixing things that are broken. He always said “you can do anything if you have the passion and drive”.
Allen was a respected member of the community and spent a lot of his time volunteering at local food banks. He enjoyed watching horse racing, repairing boats and cars, football, spending time with his grandchildren, and walks around his neighborhood with his therapy dog, Peppy.
Allen leaves behind his four children- Thomas P., Samuel R., Tiffany D., and Kathy R., many grandchildren, nieces, and nephews.
A memorial service, celebration of life, and casting ceremony will be held at a later date. Friends and family will be notified of these changes.
