Arete means Excellence. Excellence in anything or anyone is something we should all be searching for and hoping to attain!

Benjamin Arrel Allen
My dad, Benjamin Allen is the most level-headed, honest, hard-working, happy, optimistic, god-fearing, selfless, amazing, zealous, forgiving, and loving man I know. He taught me that life is an adventure, that we should do our best and forget the rest. He taught me to do more with less. He taught me to dream and be creative. My dad taught me to love myself and see myself as a Daughter of God first. He worthily blessed me as a baby, baptized and confirmed me a member of the true church of Jesus Christ when I was eight, and he counseled me as a bishop through my teenage years. One of the best things my dad ever did was to find and marry the most amazing woman who became my mom! My dad means the world to me, and I really do look up to him more than pretty much anyone on this earth. I love you Daddy!
