Greyson Allen

Greyson James Allen, 4, went to be with the angels and our Lord on Saturday, March 6, 2021, surrounded by his family.

Greyson was born Dec. 22, 2016, to parents Shane Foley, of Fairview, and Ashley Allen, of Morgantown.

Greyson was a lively, outgoing, energetic child who always had a smile on his face. He was known by his family and friends to be smart and ambitious and loved spending time with his family and playing dinosaurs and Transformers. He enjoyed many television shows, including “Paw Patrol,” “Blaze” and “Tom and Jerry.”

His time on earth was short, and the family cherishes his memory as the brief gift it was.

In addition to his parents, Greyson is survived by his grandmother, Tammy Allen “MiMi,” of Rivesville; grandparents, Robert and Tammy Foley, “Mamaw and Papaw,” of Fairview; great-grandparents, Bill and Brenda Allen “Nanny and Pappy,” of Rivesville; great-grandmother, Betty Merrill, of Fairmont: great-grandmother, Alice Foley, of Fairview; special aunt, Tabatha Roupe “My Tabby” and her boyfriend Derrick Webber, of North Carolina; his special uncle and best friend, Shawn King, of Morgantown; uncle, Kasey Foley, of Fairview: uncle, Nathaniel “Uncle Spaniel”; aunt, Ariel Cope and family, of Morgantown; aunt, Cherril and family, of St. Petersburg, Fla.; great-uncle, Billy and great-aunt Tina and family, of Morgantown; great-aunt, Amanda and family, of New Freeport, Pa.; great-aunt, Dixie and family; great-aunt, Lonnie and family; great-aunt, Sue Foley and great-uncle Mike Foley, of Fairview; as well as his cousins, many other aunts and uncles and childhood friends.

Friends may join the family to honor Greyson’s life and legacy during a memorial gathering at Smith Funeral & Cremation Care, 108 Holland Ave., Westover/Morgantown from 3-8 p.m. Friday, March 19. A memorial service will be held for his immediate family at a later time.

Guests are required to wear face coverings, practice social distancing and limit their visit with the family to 15 minutes or less.
