Dennis Lee Allen, age 75, passed away on Tuesday, July 7, 2020 after a long illness. Dennis was born in Switzer in Franklin County on June 1, 1945. He was preceded in death by his parents, Alice and Lawrence "L.C." Hutcherson, son, Dennis Allen II, and brother Lawrence "Butch" Hutcherson. He is survived by the love of his life, his wife of fifty-four years, Judy McKaig Allen; daughters, Tami Stetler (Jeff) and Angie Fergusson (James); grandsons, Brandon Howard, Todd Stetler, and Lee Fergusson (Kayla); brother-in-law, John McKaig (Robyn), who he thought of as a son; his best and most loyal companion, Chewy; and numerous cousins, nieces, and nephews, all who loved and adored him. Dennis was a proud Army veteran before retiring from the Commonwealth of Kentucky, Department of Finance. He enjoyed spending time outdoors, watching sports – he was an avid University of Kentucky fan, and mostly enjoyed time spent with his family. He and his wife enjoyed countless hours attending school, sports, and other events, first traveling to, supporting, and cheering on his daughters, and then doing the same for his grandsons. Nothing gave him more pride or pleasure. Dennis was a wonderful, loving husband, father, friend, co-worker, and a genuinely good and kind human being to everyone he met. He was a caregiver to his core. He will be missed by all who knew him. Bluegrass Hospice Care assisted Dennis' care the last few days of his life. The kindness and care they provided to him and the family were greatly appreciated. Please consider a donation to this organization in Dennis Allen's name. Dennis will be cremated. Arrangements are under the direction of Harrod Brothers Funeral Home & Crematory. There will be no public service at this time.
