    I have known Allen Chamberland for over 30 years, and during that time I never knew about his artistic talents. It's taken over 30 years for me to discover this, and it took several years for us to get reconnected through Facebook. He and I were always the best of friends, and we still remain close. Best wishes to my beloved friend.
