I would like to sent my condolences to the family of Allan Combs. He was a great man who loved his God. I will remember him for the funny things he has told me over the years. The different names he had for me every Monday morning when I arrived at the house. Allan will be forever remembered for his love of his family and his God. His wings have taken him home to see his many brothers , sister,mother, father, friends and 1st wife Ethel.I am glad there is no more pain and suffering for you Allan. Love from Lorna. I will miss you each Monday I go to the house. xoxox
I always enjoyed my visits to your home. Despite Allan’s many discomforts he was always positive and upbeat and I loved hearing his stories. I’m sure he is going to be missed by many. My condolences to Daphne and the rest of the family.
