Personally, I am thankful to my dear friend Ron Thompson for introducing me to Allen. Ron has some of the best people in the world as his friends – Allen was one of them as am I.
I, as well as, the members of Bread of Life Church express our condolences to Linda and the friends and family of Allen. God can and will comfort your hearts if you let Him, for He said, “Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted” (Matt. 5:4).
