"Our deepest sympathies to the Cuda family. I have so many great memories of Allen and his family as our neighbors as I grew up...putting up hay together, all the activities at Redeemer Lutheran, and especially the great friends Allen and his family were to my mother. He will be missed but never forgotten.
