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)
