Allen Nelson`s memorial on June 25 in Ishikawa Pref. Japan.   Although I never had the opportunity to meet Allen in person, since I heard of him I have always felt that we share a similar path.   When I first came to Japan last year and participated in the peacewalk, people came to me and asked if I knew him.   The people would tell me stories about Allen since Mr. Nelson had been coming to Japan for the last fourteen years there were many stories.   Most of all I was told that he had a very big heart, he wanted to help create a better world for us.   I think that people like Allen Nelson need to see the reality of war, so that he has the opportunity to be able to tell the truth to us.   If you know Allen`s or my story, please speak it to your families and friends, because if people know that truth about war, they cannot let their governments go to war.

 

May Peace Be With You Allen,

 

Ash
