Allen, it was a pleasure to have you as our friend. I remember one time we went to watch his band play, he was amazing playing saxofone. He will be missed.

As a close neighbor and freind of Alan’s for over 20 years i will miss talking with him and seeing him working in his beautiful lawn every day. Thanks to his wonderful careing wife Bebe, and his sons Chad and Mark and their families, and the great love and care he showed to his Aunt Betty, I feel confident, (though so sad) that he passed away as a happy gentleman

Mr. George Allen Guyot I never officially met you, but in a sense perhaps I have seen you through the character of your son Mark. If you two are any reflection of each other I have nothing but positive things to say about you (and mark). It appears you’ve blessed your son with a compassionate soul, loving heart and valuable outlook on life. Mr. Guyot thank you for this gift and may you continue to play music throughout your next journey wherever it has taken you. Mark, I’m sure your dad was proud of you. Friend for life. Michael Estrella.

Marcia McNamee says
I just finished watching the memorial of Allen & am amazed how this one person has accomplished so much in such varied fields. I am personally impressed that Allen created a music program designed for his granddaughter Ava. What a gesture of pure love.
His positive, compassionate, loving spirit is a role-model to admire.
Zorina Abrahim says
Our deepest sympathies are with all the family. We have enjoyed meeting and knowing Allen for the past several years. What a Gentleman, humorous and kind. He will be missed and it is extra painful that we cannot be all together, sharing memories and hugs. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, sending strength and love to all. May you find faith to endure this time of extreme grief.
