L. Mae Allen, 83
DENTON, Md. - L. Mae Allen of Denton died Saturday, March 17, 2007, in the Memorial Hospital in Easton. She was 83.
Mrs. Allen was born in Easton, daughter of the late William Sebastion and Leona Foxwell George.
She was a 1941 graduate of Easton High School.
Mrs. Allen had worked for Maurice Adams of Trappe. She performed labeling at Fox's Cannery in Queen Anne and Saulsbury Brothers in Ridgely.
She was known as an avid cook, which all of her neighbors in Hillsboro could attest to. Where there was a need, she was there. She enjoyed gardening and taking care of her house. She also kept busy in later years doing word search puzzles 24/7.
Mrs. Allen was a member of the American Legion Caroline Post 29 Auxiliary where she enjoyed helping the ladies with kitchen duties.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Ross A. Allen Sr. March 28, 1998; and 10 siblings.
She is survived by two sons, Ross Allen Jr. and Roland Allen; two daughters and two sons-in-law, Rhonda A. and Willis Johnson III of Lewes, Del. and Kimberley A. and Lee T. Blades Jr. of Denton; a devoted granddaughter, Karen T. Matthews and her husband, Anthony of Laurel, Del.; and two grandsons with whom she lived, Joshua A. Blades and Jordan B. Blades; a granddaughter, Melissa Mueller of Easton and her sons, Zachery and Jacob Mueller; a grandson, Michael Allen of Florida; a granddaughter, Gwen Boyles, a great-grandson, Conor Matthews; a great-granddaughter, Allyson Mueller; two brothers, Phillip George of Whitemarsh and Otis George of Virginia; five sisters, Irene Dayton of Harrington, Del., Pansy Tolson of Chestertown, Louise Thompson of Dover, Del., Rose Perry of Federalsburg and Barbara Watson of Goldsboro; and a special and devoted friend, Shirley Harris of Cordova.
A funeral service will be 1 p.m. Tuesday in Moore Funeral Home, PA, 12 S. Second St., Denton, where friends may call one hour earlier.
Burial will be in Denton Cemetery.
Instead of flowers, the family suggests memorial contributions to Thawley's Chapel, c/o Ridgely United Methodist Church, P.O. Box 424, Ridgely, MD 21660; or Queen Anne-Hillsboro VFC, P.O.
