It is with deep sorrow and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Allen Montelongo, age 18, of West Valley City, Utah, who tragically lost his life on Saturday, October 25, 2025. Allen’s sudden departure has left his family, friends, and community in profound grief, as they struggle to understand the loss of a young life filled with promise, love, and bright potential.
Allen was born and raised in West Valley City, where he grew up surrounded by the love of his family and the support of close friends. He was known for his kind-hearted nature, his warm smile, and his ability to bring laughter into any room. Whether he was spending time with loved ones, enjoying music, or simply being himself, Allen had a way of making others feel seen, appreciated, and valued. He was the type of person who checked on others, offered help when it was needed, and genuinely cared for the well-being of those around him.
At just 18 years old, Allen was stepping into the early stages of adulthood, making plans, setting goals, and dreaming of a future that reflected his passions and talents. He had hopes of building a life that would make both himself and his family proud—one filled with growth, experiences, and purpose. His potential was limitless, and the world will forever feel the absence of the greatness he was destined to achieve.
Allen’s passing is a heartbreaking reminder of how precious and fragile life can be. His family and friends describe him as someone who loved deeply and lived with sincerity. He valued loyalty, respected others, and stood by those he cared for. His absence leaves a silence that feels impossible to fill, and the memories shared with him are now held more tightly than ever.
Though his time here was far too short, Allen’s life made a lasting impact on everyone who knew him. His legacy lives on through the stories, laughter, lessons, and love that he leaves behind. While the pain of losing him is immeasurable, those who loved him take comfort in knowing that his spirit continues to shine through the lives he touched.
During this difficult time, the Montelongo family asks for support, compassion, and prayers as they navigate the overwhelming grief of losing their son, brother, family member, and friend. They are deeply grateful for every message of love, every candle lit, and every gesture of comfort offered in his honor.
Rest peacefully, Allen.
You will never be forgotten.
Your memory will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved you.
