Allan was a huge Clint Eastwood movie fan. He enjoyed country music and spending time around children, especially babies. He was very proud of his 1967 GTX and always had fun around a bonfire. He enjoyed fishing and even won two trophies, one for a largemouth bass and the other for a smallmouth bass. Allan adored his German Shepherd Callie, who always brought a smile to his face.

In addition to his parents, he is predeceased by his daughter, Jennifer Fitzgerald and his brother, Curtis Brown. He is survived by his wife, Cheryl; his daughter Amanda H.

    I was so sad to hear this news. He was such a good man and a very good friend that I had the pleasure of growing up with. We had a lot of fun in and out of school and over the recent years. He will be missed by many including myself and my two children, Josh and Sarah, who also adored him. My condolences to the family and friends of this great man. Warmly, Debby
