Allen is married and has one son. He served two terms as an elected school board trustee. He has served as President of his local youth baseball association, head coach of the church youth basketball league team, as well as, head coach of his local youth baseball team. After winning the championships of both sports in the same year, he decided to step down as head coach in order to let the next generation take over.

When not working, Allen enjoys fishing with his “bride” but he is most passionate about deer hunting. Now that his “bride” has also taken up the sport of deer hunting, it’s twice as much fun as he gets to teach her. When it’s not hunting, fishing or Dallas Cowboys season, he tries his best to spoil his great-nieces as much as possible.
