Allen, Jr. in 1976. She retired from Western Electric after 25 years and shortly after moved to Sun Lakes, AZ and became known as the Mayor of Nacoma Street, where she enjoyed the sun, her pool, and many friends. Her gift was loving people, entertaining people in her home, where her door was always open, and where she was delighted to set another place for more guests at her table! She was a devoted mother, daughter, and grandmother. Her love was unconditional and serves as an example to many. Her greatest joy was her grandchildren, Summer, Ryan, and Justin.
