As a child Austin loved wrestling, dirt bikes, BMX, and skateboarding. He loved spending time with his family and friends and was always of good nature. He had a sweet, playful spirit and a serious, kind heart. He was gifted at making us laugh and adding smiles to our faces. As Austin grew more mature, fishing became his favorite pastime. Taught by his Papaw, they would spend every chance together in the boat or on the side of a bank. But, of the last 18 months, the biggest and most precious moments of Austin’s life were spent with his baby girl, Bryilee Kathern Marie Allen, who survives. That sweet spirit and kind heart reigned supreme in Austin when he was with his Bryilee.
Along with Bryilee, Austin is also survived by his childhood sweetheart and Bryilee’s mother, Lyndsey Raye Larson, of Commerce City, Colorado; his father Brady of Rising Star, Texas; his mother Theresa and his brother and best friend, Brady Tyler Allen, both of Commerce City, Colorado. Surviving grandparents are Barry Arnold and Jackie Allen of Winnsboro, Texas and Anita Peterson Cowan of Corpus Christi, Texas along with a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
Austin was preceded in death by his grandmother, Kathern Nora Hurt Allen, and his grandfather, Daniel Phillip Cowan.
Memorials may be made in memory of Barry Austin Allen to afsp.org American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
