Mr. Shoopman, you have honored my grandfather's first cousin. I so very much appreciate you posting the link and the video, you sincerely gave such a moving and respectable eulogy to Allen. On behalf of my family (Samuel Dozier-his first cousin), we thank you for the involvement in Allen's remembrance as a young man growing up, and that of a man who died for freedom of lives for others. The memorial you created is a professional and beautiful tribute.
Ms. Smith, if you are reading this, thank you for the initial posting about Allen, and your student Mr. Shoopman, for selecting Allen to be honored. We finally see his final resting place, as we only had pictures of his cenotaph headstone in Richmond Cemetery.
