Allen graduated from Sparta High School Class of 1962. He fell in love young and married the love of his life, Eleanor Breda. The pair built a house together and settled in Hopatcong, NJ where they celebrated 47 years of wedded bliss.  Allen was an incredibly hardworking man who worked for 40 years as a machinist and electrical engineer for DairyPak in Morristown, NJ.   After retirement, they moved to the Jersey Shore to be by the ocean, a place they both adored. 

Allen, also known to many as Butch or Butchie, was a renaissance man. He had many talents and hobbies- among them woodworking, furniture making, and creating beautiful digital photo albums and home movies for others to enjoy.  He was an artist in a variety of mediums. Additionally, he enjoyed hosting holiday gatherings where he cooked and baked for his extended family and friends. He and Ellie shared a love of traveling and taking cruises.  Bermuda and Walt Disney World were among their favorite places. Butch and Ellie had a love for each other like no other.

Surviving is his eldest sister, Lorraine; his daughter, Dawn and husband Rafael of Sparta, NJ, son Scott Jobeless and wife Robin of Simsbury, CT; and his three grandchildren, Conor Jobeless, Zoe Jobeless, and Eleanora Vallejo, along with many beloved nieces and nephews who he held very close to his heart.
