William D. Allen, 74, who served for 40 years at the Rochester & Monroe County EFCU, passed away on May 25. Allen’s finance career also spanned several years working in Wellsboro, Lawrenceville, Mansfield and Coudersport, Penn.
Allen enjoyed cooking, hunting, fishing and water sports with his children and grandchildren and worked many years for the Henrietta community as treasurer of the Republican Committee. He also worked volunteering for prospective community servants and was a member of the Masonic Lodge and Ducks Unlimited.
“Bill was a well-respected credit union leader who was also dedicated to his family and the community,” said New York Credit Union Association President/CEO William J. Mellin. “My thoughts and prayers are with Bill’s family and loved ones during this difficult time, and the New York credit union movement will miss Bill immensely.”
Allen is survived by his wife Sheila; daughters Dr. Ryanna Allen (Dale) Dimick and Raelyn Allen; grandsons Jack Allen, Luke William and Cole Ryan Dimick; brother Duane Allen; and several nephews, nieces and extended family and friends.
