ALLEN, Robert

n Sherbrooke, on November 3, Robert Allen, extraordinary Canadian, Writer, passed away peacefully after an exemplary battle against cancer. With him were close family members and several dearest friends, many of them admiring fellow artists. Of surpassing charm, intelligence and talent, Robert lived in Montreal and the Eastern Townships, passionately loving both. As an editor, teacher of Concordia University Creative Writing, Department chairman and author of fourteen books of poetry and fiction, his imaginative accomplishments are legend. Robert's final volume " The Encantadas ",a long, lovely and unblinking meditation on the themes of human love, death, time and self, was just published by Conundrum Press. He has been justly hailed as one " of Canada's finest poets ".The hearts of those who loved Robert, shall find no replacement. Notwithstanding, we earnestly hope that his like shall come again, for on such great and remarkable imaginations, our Canadian Litarare must depend. If anyone wishes to honour Robert's memory, please send donations to Maison Aube-Lumière, 220 Kennedy St. North, Sherbrooke, QC J1E 2E7. Arrangements entrusted to the Cass Funeral Home, 3006 College, Sherbrooke, ( Lennoxville Br. ), QC; Tel: ( 819 ) 564-1750 / www.casshomes.ca.
