Resided in:
Hebron, Maine
Miles Charles Manchester Allen, 35, of Hebron and Naples, lost his ongoing and overwhelming battle with mental illness on January 9, 2023 in South Portland.
Born on February 16, 1987, in Albuquerque, NM, to Rachel and Phillip Allen, Miles was an absolute light to all who knew him. His empathy and the way he understood and loved others unconditionally was rare and precious. Miles had a natural wonder and curiosity about the world and loved nothing more than a good adventure. He was pure love.
Miles is survived by his parents Rachel Wojchowski Allen of Naples, and Phillip Allen (Pamela) of Whitefield, sister Chelsea (Matthew) Allen Hunter and his nuggets Charlie and Elizabeth of Scott Air Force Base, IL, beloved friends Chad Roberts of Hebron, Jamie Wyatt of Columbus, GA, and many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
A gathering of friends and family to celebrate Miles Allen’s life will be planned for warmer, brighter days. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his name to NAMI Maine at https://www.namimaine.org/donate

Miles was one of my bestfriends. When we met we were only 17. I was at a pretty low point in my life and he was ALWAYS there for me. He was such a generous human with a smile that literally could light up the whole room and his laugh was so infectious.
Love you Mile’s Charles Manchester Allen
Until we meet again.
Dear Rachel, We haven’t seen one another in many years. Katie Kate Days. I’m so sorry for the loss of Miles. More than heartbreaking for you. I remember some of the stories from many years ago. No words. Sending love. Kathy Mancuso
There were 7 of us cousins and we would gather every holiday (Christmas, Easter, July 4th….). One year we spent the night at Aunt Rachel’s and Uncle Phil’s house. After Miles and Chelsea went to bed, Aunt Rachel made me and my brother help her take bites out of carrots and apples so she could leave the from Santa and Miles would know Santa had stopped by🎅🏾🤎 It was those holidays growing up that helped me appreciate family, even as we grew older and farther apart. We LOVE you Miles and wouldn’t trade those blessings for the world!!!🙏🏾🙌🏾🤎

Miles you were an Amazing person. I am so glad you were a part of my life. You always made everyone laugh. You were such a joy to be around. You will truly be missed my friend! Love you
I hold every precious adventure in my heart and will forever my beautiful son… from the very earliest days of playing “ what is that cloud’ while laying on a blanket looking above into the huge New Mexican skies, to jumping waves and playing “ runaway on beaches from Reid State Park to Playa Penasco , Mexico and on so many beaches in between . You were my water and snow ski buddy, you would climb any mountain and paddle to any wildness waterside campsite with me. We explored Costa Rica by bus and on foot and you found such joy in asking questions to learn about beliefs , language and customs. You found people of all ages to share with. You were unafraid to ask questions and took the time to listen and learn and found joy in basking in the light and laughter of others. You gave away almost everything you owned on every trip . You energy and generosity left new friends where ever we went. I think you liked it best when language was a barrier. Your kindness and humor transcended almost any obstacle. You saw the good in people and wanted to help anyone or anything that might need it. You made the lives of all who had the fortune o f crossing your path happier and richer . Life with you was the most magical time . You are the light and love of my life. I know it will be darker and lonelier without you next to me. I will miss you with every breath . I will look for your light to appear in quite times in nature , I will listen for your laughter in every breeze . . And when I see a person or any living creature in need of a smile or a hand up, I will try to stop, as you so often did, to do some simple thing to remind them that they matter. I will remember your lessons in “ paying it foreword ”.
If we all went out into the world and practiced to be more like Miles, I t would a gentler and safer world. I hope with every fiber of my being, that you are dancing in the sunshine, listening to a favorite jam, surrounded by flowers in a universe of love. Thank you for staying as long as you could.
The Legendary Miles Charles Manchester Allen gave me the gift of a true friendship. I will always cherish the fun times we had together. I miss you!

You were the biggest encouragement in my music life and kept me going when I was ready to give up so many times.
I was so blessed to have you and your constant support and I’ll always remember you.

Miles was the light in so many lives, he will forever shine bright in my heart. More love than I could ever really express to you miles. I love you dearly always!
To know Miles was to love him. Miles had a laugh and a smile that will never be forgotten. I wish he would have been able to see himself the way others saw him, he was a beautiful loving soul who could make you laugh and smile even on the darkest day. Miles deserved the peace and happiness he longed for, he honestly fought so hard for so long to find the peace he so deserved , he struggled yet still brought love and happiness to us all. He shined bright in the eyes of everyone who loves him and will continue to shine and have peace! Miles keep dancing, singing, laughing and smiling because tho you aren’t physically still here with us I know you are still with us all guiding us and loving us but you can now rest in peace. I miss you so much but you will never be forgotten, you are loved beyond words. Fly high my beautiful angel.
Miles was my boyfriend for 3 years, and we made so many wonderful memories.
I love you Miles Allen.
