Jeffrey Scott Allen, known to his loved ones as Jeff, Dad, or Papa, passed away at his home on November 3, 2023, in Waitsfield, Vermont, with family by his side, at the age of 72. He was a man of many talents, including woodworking and mechanics. Jeff was always willing to lend a helping hand whenever he could. His clever sense of humor and knack for spot-on sayings brought laughter to those around him. One of his favorites was describing an uncomfortable situation as feeling like a balloon in a room full of porcupines.
Jeff is survived by his daughters, Tonya Farnham and her husband Todd, and Samantha Allen, as well as his grandchildren Mark Bordonaro, Jacob Corbeil, Gabriela Calderon, and Addison Pecor. He was also blessed with a great-grandson, Tucker Bordonaro, and a great-granddaughter on the way. Jeff is also survived by his siblings Linda Allen, Cheryl Kozak and her husband Jerry, and Larry Allen and his wife Carol Lee. Additionally, he had many special nieces, nephews, and friends who were like family.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Larry and Mary Allen.
