Allan attended the Church of the Nazarene as his work schedule allowed.

He enjoyed hunting, fishing, and camping. Allan was a great help to his dad with the hunter education classes. He also loved helping his grandpa-dad with the garden and animals, especially the chickens. A yearly highlight was entering his pumpkins and other vegetables in the Grant County Fair.

His quiet and gentle spirit will be greatly missed by those who loved him, especially his younger cousins.
