Allen Strange passed away in February ’08 from Cancer. This was sudden and completely unexpected. I wanted to start this blog to share information about his upcoming memorial service in San Jose California. Please keep checking back for details. Nothing would honor Allen more then a huge party with food and laughter!Voltenoreply@blogger.comBlogger21100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2300867505160236887.post-33608377936250118472008-07-27T19:49:00.000-07:002008-08-07T10:58:28.618-07:00<p class="sidebarText">A memorial celebration of life hosted by the Strange family will be held in San Jose on September 13. We will be gathering at the San Jose Mexican HeritagePlaza. This facility seemed the perfect venue for Allen. Formal events were not a favorite of Allen's so this will be casual. Tie-dyed shirts, shorts and sandals are perfectly acceptable!</p> <p class="sidebarText">There will be a time for people to speak, sing or play a tune in Allen's memory. Food will be available, Mexican of course, as well as wine and beer.<br /></p> <p class="sidebarText">This is an open event for anyone who wishes to join us. If you know someone that may be interested please feel free to pass along the information. </p> <p class="sidebarText" align="center">If anybody wishes to help with this event it would be graciously appreciated.

He was a friend, father, husband, teacher, colleague and to some who knew him well a darn good cook! Allen's life is being honored in so many ways by so many people.<br /><br />For the sake of time I have put this Blog together to share information and offer a communication portal for upcoming events surrounding the ongoing memorial for Allen.<br /><br /><br />Please check back soon and often. I hope to get all of the information for the Bay Area memorial party up here shortly.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2300867505160236887-6703625028387742613?l=allenstrange.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Voltenoreply@blogger.com6
