Hi Dave and Denise, Ann and I are sorry to hear about your Dad passing. My memories of your parents are special. How they welcomed us during your wedding was typical of a midwest farm family. I can still see our son John playing with the cats. My only regret was that he did not have more Allis Chalmers tractors on the farm. Although I must have had some influence on his son since I understand he restored one ;). Take care, be safe and God Bless. Jim & Ann Hinner

Mr. Hagemann was my bus driver when I was young. He was such a kind and gentle man. He made such an impression on me that to this day every time I drive by his farm I can't help but remember him.
