Jennie was born on April 5, 1919 and spent her entire life in Arkansas County, except for a short time during World War II while her husband, John Paxton Allen, served in the U.S. Navy.

Jennie had 11 grandchildren, 17 great-grandchildren and a host of nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her husband of 61 years and her son, Johnny Allen of Ward, Ark.
A celebration of Jennie's life and faith will be held at First Baptist Church, DeWitt, on Friday, Sept. 8 at 2 p.m. Visitation is from 1 p.m. until the time of the service.
