At least twenty “Pioneer Family” names dot the history books of Cloverdale.  Studying the paths of these prominent people, one family name is displayed on the top rung of the ladder of success.  Many names will forever be part of Cloverdale as streets, housing tracts, athletic fields, etc.  Our most disinguished family’s matriarch was mother of three boys and nurturer to hundreds of third graders between 1955 and 1975.  The patriarch inspired hundreds of Cloverdale’s youth through scouting, schools, church, etc. For about three decades.  The football field at Cloverdale high school is dedicated in his memory.  Their three sons are well remembered for their accomplishments scholastically, in sports, and scouting—each an Eagle Scout, performing brilliantly throughout life.  The parents have long passed yet Rob, Ken, and John continue to trailblaze.  We are honored to know the Maxine and John Allen family.
