He was born June 11, 1919, in Miles City, Mont., and was a Las Vegas resident for 60 years. Allen was a member of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and worked for the Union Pacific Railroad in Las Vegas for 38 years as a locomotive engineer. Allen was also a member of the UPRR Old Timers Club. He and his wife of 50 years, Helene, and his daughter, Karen, homesteaded their land in Las Vegas in the early 1950s. The family lived on W. Charleston Blvd. when it was a one lane dirt road and without power or water. They used kerosene lamps, a potbellied stove, an ice box and Allen hauled their water in barrels. The family bathed in the County water trucks that came by their place and, to keep cool at night, slept on the porch wrapped in wet sheets. Allen and Helene built a barn on their property by hand. It became a landmark and in 2002 it was moved to the Clark County Museum as the first piece of homestead property. The front of their property went commercial in the 1960s and a Shakey's Pizza Parlor was built on the land. Today it is the site of Fellini's Restaurant. Allen restored Model T Fords that the family used in Helldorado parades, and he also did wood and metal working. All who knew him found him unforgettable. He will be greatly missed by his family and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents, William and Alta Esslinger; his wife of 50 years, Helene Mifflin Esslinger; and his brother, Paul Esslinger. Allen is survived by his daughter, Karen H. Salamon; granddaughter, Julie Lynne Salamon; son-in-law, Harold T. Crutcher; sister, Russem Wanda Jones; and nephew, Richard E. Fisher. Memorial and celebration of life service was held in the home of daughter, Karen H. Salamon, at 11:30 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 18, in Scottsdale, Ariz. Contributions may be made to the American Heart Association, 1280 S. Parker Road, Denver, CO 80231.
