Born Dec. 27, 1932, in Fort Ritner, Ind., she was the daughter of Gus Myers and Dovie Myers Cathcart. They preceded her in death.

She married C. Roscoe Allen Jr. in 1950. He survives.

Later in life, she enjoyed being a homemaker. She loved cooking and trying new recipes. She and her husband were active members of the Indianapolis Jazz Club for many years. She also attended the annual U.S.S. Keokuk reunions with her husband's fellow World War II sailor friends and their families. She was also concerned about the welfare of homeless animals and supported local Humane Societies.

In addition to her husband, she is survived by her children, Theodore Allen, Diane (Louis) Havely; grandchildren, Douglas (Chris) Schneider, Timothy (Jennifer) Havely, Christopher Havely; and five great-grandchildren.
