Allen and I were neighbors.  We attended Golden Oaks elementary, Northgate Junior High and then high school.  We lost track over the years and I was shocked to hear of his passing.

Allen and I both were into radios in HS and we were drafted into the Army the same day. He retired from the Army in basic training with a medical. The last time I saw Allen he was working at Sears Auto. After that we lost tract of each other.
