RIP Cousin Allen
Dear Nancy and Family,
I was sorry to learn of the passing of your beloved Allen. My dad, Walter F. Leavell, M.D.(who died at the age of 85 in 2019) grew up with his cousins having lived just down the block in Rossmoyne. He had fond memories of growing up with Allen and his brother and sister. Being much younger (I’m 62) I have a few memories of family gatherings and his mom’s famous fried chicken over the years. Having only returned from living out west for 30 years (to take care of dad, who was in hospice, and mom ( who has Alzheimer’s) I am sorry that we didn’t have a chance to have a meal and share stories of family. On behalf of my mother Vivian and twin brother Pierre I extend our deepest sympathy over the passing of cousin Allen.
May Allen Rest In Peace as he returns to heaven to be reunited with family, friends and our lord and savior Jesus Christ. And May God, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit be with you all now and always, Amen.

Sincere sympathy to you and your family
Nancy & Family
My deepest sympathy to all. I know the pain you have been going through and wish I had a magic wand to take away the pain and loss.
I haven’t contacted you earlier as I know first hand the heartache you have been living with. I can’t believe Larry passed 3 years ago come September and am just now getting my life together. Depend on your kids and friends to get you through the coming months. Judy Walters
He was a gentle giant
