My sincere condolences to Allen's family. I was a classmate of Allen's and will always remember him for his fantastic career on the football field. Although I didn't play football I did play trumpet in the band and was always leading the band fanfares for Allen and the team. Thanks Allen for the great memories you created for all of us. Sincerely, Denny Schnader
