Prayers for you and your family. God bless and hold you all in his hands.
Allen and family, sorry for your loss, praying for you.
May you rest In heaven Mr. Breeden you will surely be missed but never forgot. The first home that I owned I bought it from you so your remembrance will forever be with me. Gone but never forgotten.
I am so sorry for Allen’s family. I have many fond memories of him as I worked with him at Gurney Unit. We always picked at each other and argued playfully. He was a very dear friend. I went to see him at Trucare a few months ago. He is at peace now.
Sending our deepest sympathy and prayers for the family at this time.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the Breeden family during this time of great sorrow. I knew Allen for many years and loved his stories and he sense of humor. Ride on Cowboy.
