Dad met Mum in Hawke’s Bay in the early 1970s, and their relationship blossomed into a beautiful marriage. They were married on 11 April 1977, beginning the journey of the family they would build together . Their meeting marked the beginning of their life together and the family they would go on to build.

Despite facing challenges and having limited opportunities for formal education, he continued learning, developed valuable skills, and built a successful working life through dedication and commitment.

What stands out most is that Allen’s achievements were not only for his own benefit. He generously shared his knowledge and experience, supported others, and contributed to his church and community. His willingness to help people learn and grow shows the kind of person he was: humble, caring, dependable, and always willing to make a positive difference.

As a husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend, Allen created a legacy of love that will continue through the people who knew him. The memories shared by his family are a meaningful reflection of the special place he held in their lives.

May this memorial page remain a lasting place where family and friends can share stories, photographs, and treasured memories. May future generations learn about Allen’s journey, values, achievements, and the love he gave so freely.

Although Allen is no longer with us, his influence and memory will continue to live on in the hearts of everyone who loved him. May he rest peacefully, forever remembered and forever loved.
