Dear Sherry and Terri,

My sister Stephanie Moeslein and I were sorry to hear that Allen died. We enjoyed seeing our cousin at Soulard Market and he always enjoyed sharing his best produce with us. He was especially proud of his sweet corn and it really WAS something special! I’m sorry we didn’t find out about the wake and funeral until days after. We would have come to catch up with you both and pay our respects to Allen. He was a remarkable and kind man.

Sorry we were unable to attend services.  Allen was always in a good mood and a very hard worker.   He will be missed.

I remember the Haggeman from the 60’s. Allen was a proud farmer especially about his sweet corn. Years ago Allen made a sign,which is still there that read”my corn”. He would give out free samples of his popcorn. When you’d reach out one hand he’d say no two hands. Once tasted you’d buy a bag.  Allen’s voice could be heard 75’ away saying “Come taste my corn “ and he will be missed

To the family of Allen Hagemann:

With heartfelt sympathy for your beloved family member, from 
Danella Watkins also a Soulard Farmer's Market Vendor who had the privilege to share a few of his years with him at Soulard's, and share some of the best corn I've ever eaten in my life , and popcorn too.
Also, I had the privilege to work directly with him assisting him when I wasn't busy too busy and he was.
I have an adult son Ahmad, and grandson Tsai who was very fond of Mr. Hagemann as well.
I also had the privilege to meet the sister's when they visited his stand when they were in town.
I do know for sure from his own lips he really did love his mother, and sisters, whom he spoke about quite often at times.
I trust that each and every family member will experience comfort, and peace during this time from each other, and others that care and loved Mr. Hagemann in Jesus Name.

I worked next to Al down at Soulard Market. He was a great man. He taught me so much about growing my own plants. I used to bring my baked goods for him every week, and he believed I could open up my own bakery. He inspired me to keep baking when I felt like I wasn’t good enough. He will be missed so much!  

Sorry for your loss, Allen was quite a talker, loved his farm and a good long time neighbor. Sorry we won’t be available to attend. Prayers for your family.

Sad to hear about Allen's passing. I am in Florida until March. Please let everyone in family know that I can't be there. I remember fondly meeting up with Allen he was very special.  Always so generous when I saw him at the market always full of ideas and a hard worker.

I grew up down the street from Allen and his mother , Allen was always full of stories and grew the most beautiful produce. He and his mother had hanging baskets they grew that were the most beautiful in all of our county. He was always tickled when I’d come by and load up on plants and fertilizer and tell him to just bill my dad. I’m going to miss jogging past his place and seeing him out in the fields …. 

Loved getting popcorn from Al at Soulard.  We will miss him
