My prayers and thoughts go out to the entire Rials family. May you all find the strength in God to help you through this rough time. I love you all very much.
As a 7 year old, I recall a towering gentle giant introduce himself as my cousin. He smiled, spoke with a quiet eligance and then took me out to show me the ranch. He was larger than life and I was at ease. That memory will remain with me forever, living in my heart and soul to keep his memory alive.
Be at peace Allen Paul.

Uncle Fred and Aunt Elaine...It is times like this, We are so blessed to have a family that knows and trust's the LORD. Only He can give the comfort,peace,and strength we so desperately need . There is no peace, like Jesus can give, even in the mist of the storm. He can calm the waters We are not here long we are just passing thru this world. We have a permanent home and it is a grand place where we will never have any more pain,sorrow,tears,or good bye's. We will be going there soon ourself. We are told to rejoice when God calls one of his children home. Well, I know it is hard.. but, we do know when we are called home,We will see our savior and redeemer. and we will be reunited with family,friends and loved ones, just waiting for us. We know God knows best. We just need to hold on to the hand of Jesus and let him lead us in his perfect peace,and the joy only he can give.
Jerry ,Judy and Ashley.. I love you and am praying for you all in my prayers and will continue to do so. I love you all, Very much. Do you remember the time I got hit in the head while playing base ball in your back yard ??? got knocked out to. We had some great times and I will never forget...... love and prayers.

Elaine and Fred, Carla, Ashley and family,
Common words are inadequate and hollow during this time. However, God's Word is always appropriate. As we remain in Him, we receive the peace that passes all human understanding. His Spirit keeps our hearts and our minds focused on Christ. Because of Christ's saving death, we are assured of eternal life. And so, you can be assured that you will join Allen in that blessed reward for all believers in Jesus Christ. We hold each of you in prayer that God's peace and comfort surrounds you and that you feel His personal and real presence during this time. God's love and ours to you all.

I am so sorry for the loss of Mr Allen. I can remember wanting to wear cowboy boots just like him. Mom got me a pair of boots and I wore them everyday. Because I thought he was so cool in his. But my mom had enough with the cowboy wild west look and hid my boots Thank you Mr Allen for showing me how to be cool in my boots. Thank you for the memories that our families shared.I know God will bless and keep your family and I will look out for them as well. Farewell my friend.Praying For peace and comfort to the family.
