Capt. Allen,

I am so sorry to learn of the grievous loss of Captain Allen when he died in the line of duty from Covid. To the Alllen family, fellow officers , and all who call Billy beloved, my heart goes out to all of you and may you find comfort in your loved ones and your strength in your faith. When my son was killed, the entire law enforcement community in our area embraced us in a circle of love and support. I hope that you continue to receive that same kind of support. It makes the unbearable less torturous, and I pray for your solace.
This is sent with the utmost respect for the dedicated service Captain Allen gave to our nation and for the supreme sacrifice he and his family made on December 6, 2020.

CPT. Allen was a supervisor in Traffic Section a outstanding leader always looked out for his officers. I knew him when I was an officer there from 2007- 2013 cut my teeth there as a rookie in law enforcement. There would be no one there that he could not make laugh he was a fun loving guy.

The true measure of a person
is not found in the
might of their arm,
their wealth
or their power –
it is found in the strength
of their character.
There is no greater testimony to
ones character, than ones
willingness to sacrifice all,
in the noble quest of
providing protection to all
whom they serve.

Rest in Peace brother and watch over us. We will protect and serve from here on in your honor.
I fight not for glory or fame, for they are momentary. I fight for those who can't. I fight for Justice. I fight for the oppressed and the down trodden. And if I should lose my life for these just causes, then I have no regrets, For I serve to protect the innocent. It matters not where or when, for evil knows no boundaries. Be it fire, flood, or the threat of tyranny, I will not flee. Justice is my weapon. Faith is my shield. Hope is my armor. Cry not at my passing, for it was my Honor to fight for you. Shed not tears of sorrow, But tears of joy, for now, I stand with God.
