I love you Doc and Beth. My best memory is Doc patiently listening to Beth, Judy, and I talking nonstop at the kitchen table and breaking into our conversation with his precious little grin and laughing at his own joke! He never cared that we continued talking and ignored him!! Doc was one of the most secure and wonderful men I have ever known. Beth, I am thinking of you every day and love you. Vickie
It was an honor to know you, Doc. My heart is with Beth and your family. I admired your artistic talent and your gentleness. You and Beth were always so kind and sweet to me. And much loved by my parents, Ron and Rene Stark. You are missed sir.

Beth, So very sorry to hear about Allen. We became friends in high school when his family moved to Florida. I have very fond memories of that time and later at the University of Florida before our lives took different paths. It was such a joy to reconnect with Allen and meet you at our last class reunion. His note last Christmas was so positive and upbeat. I so admire his attitude and artistic talent. I wish you and family peace and joyful memories.
My Mother and I wish to extend our most profound condolences to Beth and the Meyers family. We will miss Allen. He was a very good friend. Allen
Served with him while in VS-37 on the Hornet West Pac Cruise 1964
I don’t think I have ever known of anyone so courageous and determined as Allen. He overcame so many obstacles and fought the long, hard fight – he was an inspiration! My most heartfelt condolences to all of the Myers family. And to Beth – you are in my thoughts and prayers. I am here for you in friendship and love. God bless you all – Love, Karen
Dear Beth and Children, We are so sorry to hear of your loss. He was truly a remarkable man that I thought would live forever. I was convinced he had nine lives. There are no words to comfort you. Just know that he was loved and respected by many. All of our deepest sympathy. L and P.
