Katherine Campbell Allen
Katherine Campbell Allen, 76, died July 18, 2023 of a lingering heart condition. She died surrounded by family in Milford, N.H. Kitty, as she was called by all, was born Aug. 17, 1946, at Ft McPherson Ga. She is survived by her husband LTC (Ret) Glenn R. Allen, her daughter, Barbara Allen O’Donnell and husband Paul; her son Mark C. Allen and wife Karen; and three grands; Brian, Melanie and Jacqueline O’Donnell. She is also survived by two loving and close sisters; Nancy Harris and Bea Kempster, and their husbands David and Jack; her loving brother Brooks Campbell and his wife Allison, and many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her father Col (Ret) Raymond P Campbell and mother Elizabeth Brooks Campbell.
Kitty’s father and husband were both career Army officers, so she moved many times during her exciting life. Her favorite place was West Point, N.Y., where her father and son both graduated, and where she lived when her father and husband were stationed there at different times in their careers. Her son was born at West Point. She graduated from Penn Hall Jr College in 1966 and married Glenn in 1968 in the chapel at Ft Myer, Va.. From childhood her goal in life was to be a loving and devoted wife and mother, and she lived this life to the fullest. She was also very athletic; enjoying running, swimming, power walking, skiing and golf.
Kitty will be greatly missed by all, but is in a better place now; free of pain and frustration she could not improve. Her smile, kindness and caring will make Heaven an even better place.
A family Celebration of Life will be held to honor this very special lady. In lieu of flowers please consider donations to Davis House Child Advocacy Center (www.davishousecac.org).
