Stephen Allen

Our beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend Stephen Carl Allen passed away on Sunday, February 13, 2011 from complications of esophageal cancer after a courageous two year battle. Stephen was born on September 23, 1948 to John and Norma (Bone) Allen in Ogden, Utah. He was happily married for 37 years to Susie (Rutherford). A lover of the outdoors, Stephen enjoyed fly fishing, camping, and trips to Mirror Lake. He earned two degrees from Weber State University and shared his expansive knowledge of computer science with thousands of students at the Davis Applied Technology College (DATC) in Kaysville, Utah for nearly 30 years. Stephen served his country proudly in Vietnam and Germany for the United States Army. His greatest pride and joy was his family including his two sons, daughter and niece. Stephen is survived by his wife; children Dustin, Heather (Rich) and John (Lindsay); niece Ashley (David); and siblings, Jack (MaryAnn), Margaret, Lesley (Chris), and Ken (Cindy). His grandchildren Tyler, Ainsley, Lucas, Kenzie and Madden were loved by their doting grandfather. Preceded in death are his parents. Stephens witty sense of humor and analysis of life will be sorely missed by those fortunate enough to have known him.
