Dear Christy, Sheridan and I were unable to attend the service for Bart but we were there in mind and spirit. I had seen him recently at the health store in C'ville and I'm still in shock. He was one of the nicest and gentle men that I've ever met and always felt a genuine sincerity emanate from him. He will be sorely missed. Sheridan is saddened that he was not able to substitute for him in the past 2 years. He had the greatest respect for him. You're in our prayers.

Mr. Allen is one those teachers who pressed me to look for bigger and better things. He is one of many who I have to thank for where I am today. May God make Himself known to you in a greater way as you grieve and may you love Him more.

I really enjoyed speaking with Bart when I would come to pick up my son, Clayton Sadler, from Stars. He was always all smiles and friendly words. He always held my younger son while I went inside the school. He commented more than once how it'd been along time, but remembered when his boy was that little on his lap...with a big reminiscent grin of course. It was a shock to hear of his passing. Herrin lost a wonderful man way too soon...God bless his family.
