George A. Allen

George A. Allen, 89, of Cicero, Indiana, passed away peacefully at home on June 10, 2023.  George was born February 22, 1934, in Washington, IN.  With his parents and seven siblings, George lived in Washington until his high school graduation.  After graduating high school, George served three years in The United States Navy.  George was a sailor on a Destroyer during the Korean War.  Once he returned from the Navy, George met and married Shirley Harrison in Connersville, IN. They soon welcomed two beautiful daughters, Renee and Kimberly.  Later, George served 28 years with the Connersville police department as a Captain.

George was a member of Calvary Baptist Church and Baptist Temple in Connersville. Once moving to Cicero, he became a member of Hope Bible Fellowship church in Noblesville.

His passions were God, family, and golf. You could find him on the golf course or playing cards with his family or friends.  George would always greet you with a kind smile and loved sharing stories about his childhood with his siblings.  He was always there for his daughters and there was never a problem he couldn’t figure out how to solve. George was also a talented artist and carpenter. He loved his family dearly and enjoyed many adventures with the love of his life Shirley. He was so many things to so many people.

With strong faith in Christ, George has transitioned to his heavenly home in the precious arms of his savior, Jesus Christ.
