Allen found solace in the beauty of the natural world, particularly the tranquil melodies of the ocean waves and the majestic presence of whales. He dedicated himself to making a positive impact in his community, finding fulfillment in volunteering and serving others. He was a valued member of the Ryan White Planning Council of Houston. A cup of coffee became a symbol of his warm hospitality and a cherished opportunity to share precious moments with loved ones.

Allen is reunited in the embrace of his grandparents, aunts, and uncles and cousins who preceded him in death. Their spirits will forever watch over the family they hold dear.
