Allen A. Weiner, age 76 years, died at his Metairie home on Tuesday, November 19, 2019. He was born on April 25, 1943 in New York, NY to the late Martin and Blanche Weiner. He is survived by his wife Jan, his daughter Cori, his daughter Elizabeth and her husband Ty Mabry, his daughter Sarah and her husband Robert Ridel, his sister Sandye, his sister Roberta and her husband Ron Collins, his nephew Ben Collins, and his devoted lifelong friends.
He grew up in Oklahoma and moved to New Orleans for his senior year of high school. He attended Oklahoma University for an undergraduate degree and received a master’s degree from the University of Missouri. He returned to New Orleans to work and ultimately founded his own accounting and financial planning firm in Metairie, which he operated until his retirement earlier this year. A devoted Saints fan, Weiner held season tickets since the 1970s. He also loved horse-racing and animals, especially his dogs. Before his death, he realized his dreams of witnessing the Saints win the Superbowl and visiting Israel.
