Robert Allen

Robert F. (Bob) Allen, age 84, left this earthly plain peacefully on Sunday morning, December 6, 2015 at home with his beloved animals, after a brief bout with oat cell cancer.

He was born in Erie on February 16, 1931, son of the late Charles and Sarah Dengle Allen.

Bob served in the U.S. Navy during the Korean War.

Bob always worked hard to support his family, and was very kind if someone needed help.

He was preceded in death by his wife Erma Jeanne Allen in 2012.

Survivors include his daughter Cyndi Allen; Joe Burwell and wife Cathy; Brothers, Charles Allen and wife Shirley and Dave Allen and wife Alice; Sisters in law, Shirley Morrison and Stella Thompson; Brother in law, Ray Mucha and many nieces and nephews.

A brief service with Military honors was held at the Erie Cemetery on July 11th, and due to a clerical error, this obituary should have been in the Times News on July 10th.

Arrangements were entrusted to Burton Funeral Home and Crematory, Inc.

Memorials may be made to the ANNA Shelter, 1555 East 10th Street, Erie PA 16511.
