Christopher “Chris” F. Allen
1978 – 2023
Chris Allen passed away from a rare and aggressive cancer on Monday, October 16, 2023, at the age of forty-five. The beloved father, husband, son, brother, and friend passed peacefully at Dulcina Hospice surrounded by family and bathed in the love and prayers of those who supported him through his journey.
Although Chris’s greatest accomplishment in life was being an amazing family man, he was also well-loved and respected by his colleagues in the business world. He was core to the Madstone Consulting Group for his immeasurable contributions on a professional and personal level. Those who had the pleasure of working with Chris remember his friendly support and his competence. Chris’s unique gifts in logic, programming, systems, strategy, and solutioning are already missed by the Madstone Group.
Chris loved board and video games, camping, home renovations, travel, and gardening, all pastimes that were shared with friends and family. His quick sense of humour was always at the ready, no matter the pursuit.
Chris is mourned by his wife, Lesley; stepdaughter, Hannah; mother, Joan; sister, Carolyn (Mike); nieces, Katelyn and Ariana; mother-in-law, Helen; father-in-law, Abe; his sister-in-law, Amy (Stephen), and nephew, William. He is predeceased by his father, Fred, who I am sure will show him how to continue to watch over their loved ones.
We appreciate his strength, courage, and unwavering commitment to remaining his true self throughout his battle. Chris never let his challenge change his optimism, sense of humour, and care for his clients, friends, and family.
We would like to say a special thank you to all the healthcare aides, nurses, social workers, recreational therapists, housekeeping staff, and doctors who supported Chris during his journey, especially the wonderful Foothills Unit 47 and Dulcina Hospice staff.
A Celebration of Chris’s life will be held on Friday, October 20, 2023, at 3 p.m. at Choice Memorial (105, 4715 – 13 Street NE, Calgary, AB).
