Hunter Michael Allen, age 22, of Chelsea, MI, passed away on February 1, 2024, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of all those who knew him.

He was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan, the son of Daniel (Brandy) Allen and Jayma (Donald Jr.) Bollinger.

He grew up in the Chelsea area and graduated from Chelsea High School in 2020. During high school he lettered in baseball, football, and bowling. Hunter was an avid outdoorsman who loved spending time hunting in the woods and casting a line in the nearest body of water. He had an adventurous spirit and over the years spent time riding dirt bikes, driving in the demolition derby, and even bull riding.

Hunter recently began working with his dad and started his own business, 2nd Gen Trim, and was enjoying his new career as a finish carpenter.
