Honorary mural

Marie McKinley, pictured with her father R.D., completed, for now, her mural at the northwest corner of U.S. 27 and county road 400 North last week. (She plans to add a Case tractor to the mural in the spring.) The west side of the mural depicts ditch lilies and raspberries, which are common to the area, while the east side is a tribute both to Houser Farm Equipment, the Case dealership her father R.D. Houser and grandfather Raymond Houser ran from 1954 through 1968, and the Tri-State Gas Engine and Tractor Association.
“In a way, I’m kind of proud of it,” said R.D. Houser. “In another way, I’m kind of humbled because I never thought anything like this would happen.” (The Commercial Review/Ray Cooney)
