It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Don “Treb” Allen at Freeport Hospital on Saturday, April 3, 2021 at the age of 72, a resident of Drayton.

Predeceased by his father Francis Donald Allen and his mother Agnes Antonette Allen (nee Meinzinger). Cherished twin brother of Dan (Twila, deceased) and Tom (Trudi) Allen. Loving father of Summer Nicoll (Jaime) and Tara Hancock (Torin). Proud grandfather of Ethan and Liam Nicoll and Matthew and Luke Hancock. He will be dearly missed by nieces, nephews, aunts, Uncle Stan, many cousins and friends.

Treb was a talented familiar face in the KW area for over 15 years from the mid 60’s to late 70’s singing with rock group The Thanes and acting in KWLT (Godspell), comedy LAFF Dinner Theatre and October Jest. He eventually settled down to be a self-employed carpenter/handyman and loved camping in Algonquin Park. He loved animals, especially his dog Alice.

In lieu of flowers, please make a donation directly to your local humane society or the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada.

Cremation has taken place and a Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Messages and condolences may be left at www.tricitycremations.com or 519.772.1237.  Please visit Treb's obituary notice on Facebook.

What a shock to hear this tremendous man has left! I am so sorry for the loss to his friends and family. He was my theatrical mentor and was always such a kind person! With a heavy heart we say farewell!

To Dan and family, we are so sorry for your loss. We remember the good times we had up at the cottage and at the occasional Family Reunion. Our thoughts are with you, Heaven has a new member of their choir and he has a wonderful voice. Sending hugs, from Kathy, Frank and Marlene

Dear Dan and Family
My deepest sympathy on hearing of the passing of Treb. A wonderfully talented man, and he always gave smile and a friendly greeting. Treb will have no difficulty getting a main part in heavens "big theatre". Afterall, he already played the main role in Godspell. Break a leg Treb.
