Read More	Margaret Stuart "Maggie" Goodman Allen of Cincinnati, OH, died peacefully Sunday, November 10, 2019 after a happy and full life of 96 years. Born in Clarkton, NC, to Rev Walter Hall Goodman, Sr. and Margaret Stuart Woodhouse Goodman. Grew up in the Carolinas, attended Converse College in Spartanburg, SC. After graduation, she taught at Cedar Spring School for the deaf and blind, where she even wrote a short play that the students performed on May Day 1946. Met Julian Howard Allen in Spartanburg, married in 1949, and the couple moved to Kettering, OH, where they raised their sons, Paul and Will. After Julian retired from WPAFB in 1980, the couple returned to Spartanburg, where they lived in Julian's childhood home, and enjoyed those years with family pet, Butch the Wonderdog, and both old friends and new friends. After Julian's death in 2003, Maggie returned to Ohio to be close to son, Paul, his wife Brenda, and three beloved granddaughters, Marcy Allen, Steph Allen, and Lisa Allen Noonan (Ryan). Will's widow, Annie Schmidt, and her sons, Evan and Connor Strand, were also a part of the Allen family and Maggie always looked forward to the many visits and calls from Annie and her husband, Rick. Maggie lived at Twin Lakes in a townhome for several years, then moved to their assisted living facility, and finally in spring 2019 moved to Traditions of Deerfield. The family extended thanks to all the great people at Twin Lakes and Traditions of Deerfield for the wonderful care she received. Maggie was always very active in her churches, Fairmont Presbyterian Church in Kettering, First Presbyterian Church in Spartanburg, and Indian Hill Church in Cincinnati. She loved spending time with family, and visiting Black Mountain and Montreat, NC, and Edisto Island, SC. She was a voracious reader, always with a book at her side. Maggie also loved music, playing piano daily until her final few years, and listening to the soundtrack to "The Music Man" at least once a day in recent years. Preceded in death by husband, Julian Howard Allen; son, William Stuart "Will" Allen; twin brother, Walter Hall Goodman, Jr.; and sisters, Mary Stuart Goodman Lane and Rose Irwin Goodman McDougald. A small memorial service was held at 2:00 pm, November 24, 2019, at the chapel at Traditions of Deerfield, with light refreshments following the service. Maggie would have asked everyone to dress comfortably, no suits and ties please. In lieu of flowers, consider a donation to the Cedar Spring School for the deaf and blind where Maggie taught, at SCsdbFoundation.org/donations. Published in Spartanburg Herald-Journal Nov. 17, 2019
