Obituary of Allen R. Walraven

Allen R. Walraven "Raven" of Port Jervis died peacefully at home on June 28, 2025.  He was 71 years old.

The son of Patricia Nephew and the late William Russel Walraven, he was born on August 2, 1953 in Detroit, MI.

Raven spent his life working with his hands as a skilled maintenance mechanic at VAW in Ellenville, Tarkett in Newburgh, and Main Tech in Newark. When he wasn't fixing machinery, you'd find him outdoors - hunting in the woods, casting lines while fishing, or out on the water boating. Though he worked hard, he had a soft spot for animals of all kinds. Raven lived simply but fully, finding joy in nature's quiet moments and the satisfaction of a job well done.

In addition to his late father Raven was predeceased by his sister in law Margaret Hayes Morris.  

Beloved husband of Christine Morris.  Cherished son of Patricia Nephew.  Dear brother of Deborah Foody and Renee Bloch.  Fond brother in law of Joel Morris.  Lifelong friend of Siegfried Kovacs.  His four legged friend's Freckles & Jake and his faithful four leggers Ruby & Dixee at his side till the end.

Services are private as Raven wished.
