I was born March 26, 1944, to Donald and Maxine Fullager Allen in Spokane. My life has been like so many other people, filled with happiness and joy but my share of shame. I will not dwell upon the latter and know our good God wonât either.
My first marriage ended in divorce but I had a wonderful son, Sean Reagan Pitkin (Kimberley), of Juliaetta. Then I was married to a patient, loving man, Wayne Pitkin, Dec. 13, 1969. He adopted Sean as his son. We were soon blessed with a son, Stacy Wayne Pitkin (Jennifer), of Spokane Valley, Wash., and a daughter, Kaci Christine Neely, of Post Falls, Idaho. I also leave behind grandchildren Patrick Chandler, Deven Ballard, Kendra Pitkin, Krista Pitkin, my beloved brother, Jeffrey Allen (Teresa), of Clarkston, sister-in-law Donna Allen, of Lewiston, and cousin Nancy Plant, of Arles, Mont. I was preceded in death by husband Wayne, parents, sister Donna Knudson and brother Langley Allen.
