    I got home a bit ago and received the news of Allen’s death. I’m still shocked and saddened to hear of his death, Allen, you touched the lives of so many people and I’m proud to have known you and to have called you friend. Rest In Peace Allen, you will be missed. My prayers and sympathies to the family and everyone that knew Allen.

    This is so very sad. He was so young and just starting his life in the real world. I didn’t know him but know his grandparent and they are very good people. Bill and Shelby Spears my heart goes out to y’all and his Mom and Dad.. God Bless you all!!

    I’ll really miss you man.. I felt sick when I found out this morning.. I haven’t seen you in a few weeks I wish I could have seen you more lately.. You were always a good friend in the low spots.. It’ll seem like a long time to me but you have no timeline anymore, so I’ll see you soon man..

    WOW. This young man must of been a really good person…A good man…I have never seen so many positive comments about one person in such a short time. Usually people on here always have some advice or some kind of bull posted up here on every story. But not this time. RIP young man. You had an impact on many people.
