Allen Smith was born in Houston, Texas on October 9, 1944 to the late Herbert and Lillian Smith. He is preceded in death by seven brothers and two sisters.
Allen’s faith was a cornerstone of his later years; he accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior and attended Abiding Faith Baptist Church under the leadership of Reverend Bobby R. Morgan, where he found great joy singing in the choir.
A proud veteran, Allen honorably served his country in the United States Army. Following his military service, he dedicated many years of his life to caring for others as a physical therapist assistant, a career that perfectly reflected his compassionate heart and desire to help those around him heal.
He is survived by his loving and devoted wife of 45 years, Gladys; son Marden Smith (Shaunte’y), two daughters Glymiss Guidry (James) and April Dennis (Randall); three grandchildren, Gabrielle Selexman, Jaden Guidry, and Danielle Dennis; one great grandson Xavier Pickard; sister Helen Batts and a host of nieces and nephews.
