I remember he came as a national rep my first state convention in 1987.

I will certainly miss Allen Harris. He was a remarkable human being, who
cared about others and always showed his confidence in Federationists
wherever he traveled. His sense of humor was unparalleled and I certainly
was taken by his articulate way of communicating the Federation philosophy. 

As a teacher and wrestling coach in Detroit, he was almost a legend among
those of us who were his friends. He came to Washington as the national
representative for Doctor Maurer on at least one occasion and provided
advice and confidence to all of us.

I will miss him, and keep him in the happy memories of all the years he was
a leader in the NFB. Now, he and Joy are together, and may they both rest in
peace.

Allen did pass away last night. After they took him off the ventilator on
Sunday night he had a couple good days and was able to talk and laugh with
his family and friends who came to visit him. I will post information about
services and such when I have it.
