Sorry to hear about LeRoys passing. He was a good man and a funny guy. Worked with him at HNTB and bowled with him for a few years. Cousin Louisa and Family, Louisa, my prayers are with you at this time. Roy Allen was a great guy. Love to you. LeAnna, I’m So Sorry. I did not know your Daddy Passed until now! We were deeply saddened to read of the passing of Roy Allen.\u00a0 I have fond memories of all the great times we had when our parents lived near each other in the Holt\/Lathrop area.\u00a0 Our families became very close friends and spend much time together, including watching Red Skelton on Wednesday nights at the Rader home, followed by a kids’ game of Clue at the kitchen table.
