Allan was a childhood friend, he loved people and believed in the best of everyone. He was a jokster and a prankster and his devilish smile could truly light up a room. He went to Iraq to find a better opportunity for his family's future, albeit, he is the one that found his final reward. Truly, only the good die young, please say a prayer for Allan if you pray, if you don't maybe offer a good thought for a decent human being who is no longer among us...
Please send my condolences. Don't let his or any of our lost young peoples memories fade.
May God provide wisdom and strength to Allan's family and friends during this difficult time. Take care, you are in our thoughts and prayers.
Each of these losses is hurtful. We are so proud of and grateful for these brave men and women.
I'm guessing that the obituary itself probably won't run for a day or two.
Prayers for your friend, his family, you and his other friends.

My condolences to the family. My prayers for the family.
I lack the skills of poetry to express my gratitude to one who loved his country, his fellow Americans and his Brothers in Arms so much that he gave his "last full measure of devotion"
I celebrate that Allan was, his loss will be deeply felt.
How sad! I am so sorry for this loss.
May the family and friends be comforted at this time.
God Bless our Military!!!
God Bless America!
I am so sorry.
Pray for W and Our Troops
Words at this time seem inadequate. Not only is this a great loss for Allan's family and friends, but for our nation. Each one of these brave soldiers represents what makes this nation great and keeps us free. Allan joins millions of brave American heroes in God's kingdom.
Prayers up, Mr. Smith. Thank you for my freedom.
Prayers for your dear friend and one of our heroes.
