Allen Havens was born to Lester and Cliffie Havens February 9, 1947 in Corpus Christi, TX. Allen passed from this life October 10, 2020 in his home, his favorite place to be. Allen married his best friend, his “Boss”, and love of his life January 25, 1967. He has left to mourn his son Claude and wife Nataline Harrington of Bradley, OK; grandsons, Nate and Kylie Harrington of Katie, OK, and Doc and Pacie Harrington of Rush Springs, OK, and great-grandchildren; Rip and Harper. Sisters, Lavern and husband Terry Alexander and Linda Richards, along with numerous nieces and nephews. In addition to his parents, Allen was preceded in death by his wife Juanita Havens, brothers, Austin Havens and Buddy Baker, and sister Ruby Havens. Allen was the GRWD #3 water operator and volunteer fire fighter until his retirement. He was the best Poppa around. He loved to load up, and later follow, Nate and Doc. No matter where or what they were doing, Rodeo, Football, fishing, it did not matter, he was there. He was their first best friend. Many John Wayne movies and snacks were consumed on his babysitting watch. He had a profound effect on their lives. We will miss him terribly. We know there was a great reunion October 10, 2020 between he and Juanita, which makes this separation a little more bearable. Memorial services will be at the Bradley Cemetery Pavilion October 16, 2020 at 2 p.m.
