He worked for the Killingly Public Schools from 1981 until his retirement on May 1, 2022. Rick happily volunteered his time at the local High School football games and coaching girl’s Softball. He also dedicated many years to racing cars at Thompson Speedway, attending Pow Wows, and riding his Harley Davidson. Rick’s other passions were spending time with his family on Webster Lake, riding his four-wheeler/snowmobiles to Pizza King with the boys, and caring for his dogs. Rick Allen had an undeniable presence that would light up a room, a contagious laugh, infinite generosity, and the “gift of gab”.
