Richard Allen was my half brother. We shared the same Father. All though I didn't get to meet him until 1989.He was a very kind hearted an big hearted person. He loved seeing the dogwood trails in the spring in Palestine TX. He just loved gardening. From flowers to vegetables he could grow anything. He was a very intelligent individual and he loved his Lord and Savior. He left an abundance of great memories on this earth. HE WILL BE GREATLY MISSED ! Rest in Peace 'til I get there. Love ya Jean !
I had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know Richard at Associated Air Center. He was a wonderful co-worker and an even better friend. I spent lots of good times with Richard & Lenny at their home and an occasional visit at ours. He loved having people in their home and a standing invitation was always given. I even got to go bargain hunting with him several times at local thrift stores and top it off with lunch and laughter. I always loved strolling the property of their home with him giving the guided tour of all the different plants & gorgeous flowers. He had such a green thumb. He loved with all his heart, loved the Lord and trusted God. Rest in peace my wonderful friend. I love you and will see you again some day.
