I just want to let you know that the article in the recent Alexandria Gazette about Dr. West was most interesting. I am a native Alexandrian who knew of Dr. West as a young child, but I had no idea of his amazing history. Char McCargo Bar did an excellent job of revealing this interesting and successful African American's life! I was completely captured by every bit of the article! Thank you so much for presenting this information to your readers.
