Allen served in the United States Army from 1960-1962, and he also served in the Army Reserves. He retired from Allegheny Trucks in Altoona as a diesel mechanic. He was an avid hunter.

As a family we are blessed to know he accepted Jesus as his Savior which makes this parting so much easier knowing we have the hope of a family reunion in Heaven.
