I've just gotten this notice... our prayers and deep sympathies are with you in your loss of Allen's presence here. Thankfully, the fact of Jesus' resurrection is a wonderful and warm comfort to know that this separation is only in this life. I do remember Allen and James in the good time they had caroling at Christmas with our Wilson Prez folk and young people. God's richest blessings to you!
I only knew Allen via work but to me one thing was readily apparent, he was one of the most gentlest souls I've ever known. I will miss our morning exchanges. Love seeing these pictures!! Allen and food...
Allen, my dear cousin. You are a beautiful child of God and you like to help people in need and your church. You always put people first before yourself. Your family loves you very much. I recalled that we met each other in 2014 when you visited Toronto with your mom and dad. You had great knowledge in Microsoft C++ and had worked in the high tech operation using Computer Numerical Control (CNC). You told me that you worked at PSU too. You shared with me that you enjoy ice coffee, but not hot tea. Your heart is pure and beautiful. You are an angel. You have lightened up many people's life. You will be dearly missed. Allen, the family loves you so much and we will remember you forever. Trust you are in heaven and be with God.
Allen was my nephew. He and me were on the opposite sides of the globe. However, I still felt him close to me dearly.
When he was a small boy, he visited us with his family a few times in Hong Kong. After I had a family of my own, my family flew to the States to enjoy a two week holiday with his family. We had a good time. Allen was at his teen ages then, but looked like a gentleman already. In the telephone conversations with his mom, we would never miss out Allen. Since he was a kid, I could never remember in any encounter that he would ask anything for himself. Instead, I only remembered that he was always helpful and was a pearl of his parents. He took care of them dedicatedly in every detail.
By his twenty, he already demonstrated that he was a good follower of Christ. That he did good, that he be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate. Laying up in store for himself a good foundation against the time to come, that he might lay hold on eternal life.
No one can prepare any one for a loss; it comes like a swift wind. However, we take comfort in knowing that he is now resting in the arms of our Lord.
Allen was a good friend and co-worker; the kind that is willing to lend a hand whenever it's needed, or just give an encouraging word. I'll miss him greatly.
We spent many a moment at night discussing our Christianity and the future; I'm grateful for his friendship and am confident that I will meet him again someday.
My prayers go out to his family, may they rest assured that he is in a better place; and, although gone from our side, will not be forgotten by those who knew him.
I worked with Allen for 2 short years and considered him a friend and a man of high character. He was incredibly nice guy, I think he was an optimist that saw the good in people, a gift not all us have. An anecdote about Allen, I was planning a vacation and Allen would give me a report on airfares and the aircraft involved in each flight on a daily basis ! If you knew Allen that should make you smile. I was deeply saddened when I heard of his passing and I will miss him very much.

Allen was incredibly kind and willing to help anyone and that is not exaggeration. I think Allen saw something good in everyone and was an optimist.. that may be gift many of us do not have. An anecdote about Allen , anytime I was thinking about going on vacation or flying some where he would produce a list of the lowest fares and reports on the aircraft ! I think if you knew him that should make you smile. I was deeply saddened to hear of his passing and I will miss him.
For those of you who did not know Allen Cheung or for those of you who did. Allen fit all the clichés people typically say when people die. He was genuinely the nicest person in the world. He would literally give you the shirt off his back. He was a philanthropist, he donated his time and resources to helping out individuals and The Make Space in downtown State College. He would do anything for anyone. Even you reading this without knowing him, he would have helped you too! He was that kind of guy! Many people don't know this about Allen but he even held two jobs to support a disabled woman he barely knew until she passed this last year. He was a Christian man and he believed in Heaven. I hope for the sake of the universe that one exists because a man like Allen deserves such a proposed glorious place for eternity. He cared for his parents. I know he recently started visiting them more often and that he really loved them. He wanted to spend more time with them and I am glad that he did. He was one of my best friends. I could always count on him and I will truly miss him as a friend.
Allen was our tenant for 7 years; he was a very polite and quiet individual. We are saddened by his passing and offer our sincere sympathy to his parents, siblings, extended family and friends.
