Allen married Jim Dalton just after college and raised her two sons, Dan and Steve. Later in life Allen married Nick Hamilton and enjoyed 28 years of marriage until his death in 2013. She is survived by her children, Dan and Brandi Dalton of Arlington and Steve and Staci Dalton of Waco; her grandchildren, CJ and Caiti Dalton of Fort Worth; as well as her sister and brother, Virginia and Frank Williams of Rhode Island. Life has changed, not ended. Whatever we were to each other, that we still are. Call me by my old familiar name. Speak to me as you always did. Laugh at the little joke we enjoyed together. Party, smile, think of me and pray for me. Let my name be the household word it always was. Let it be spoken without effort or grief. Life means all that it ever meant, there is no unbroken continuity. Why would I be out of your mind because I am out of your sight? I am but waiting for you, for an interval, after some brief moment all will be as it was before… only better, infinitely happier and forever. We will be together with Christ, and in all manner of things, all is well.
