RETOLD OLD NEWS

Mount Ayr Record-News
Mount Ayr, Ringgold County, Iowa

Lisa Wilson, Mount Ayr

The process of purchasing the former Roe Implement Co. building by the Ruan Companies for a new industrial plan in Mount Ayr was completed this week, company officials have announced.

Kenneth TRIGGS of Mount Ayr has been nominated to received the American Farmer Degree, highest degree presented by the National Future Farmers of America (FFA) Organization.

A car stolen in Creston was recovered by the Ringgold County Sheriff's department south of the north junction of Highways 2 and 25 October 6. The 1966 Ford was reported stolen in Creston the night before. The car was towed to HARVEY Brothers Garage in Mount Ayr, where the owner picked it up the next morning, according to sheriff's department officials.

Postal employees of the Diagonal post office honored LaVerne KLEJCH, retiring mail carrier, and members of his family at a dinner held at Berning Cafe in Creston on Thursday evening. LaVerne is retiring after 24 years of faithful service. He started out as a substitute carrier for Dean RISSER on Route 2 in 1959. After Dean's death in February, 1975, he became the carrier for that route. Robert GRAHAM, who has been LaVerne's substitute will be his replacement.

Jim Llewellyn of Mount Ayr was presented with a certificate of appreciation from the Southwest Iowa Sheltered Workshop, Inc., a the workshop's annual meeting held in Creston. LLEWELLYN was honored for his help to the local sheltered workshop center.

Pastor Tom ALBRECHT has a busy Sunday on his last Sunday in the First Lutheran Church, baptizing or confirming seven people from the Diagonal area all on the same day. Pastor ALBRECHT has since moved from the First Lutheran Church in Mount Ayr to a church in Farnhamville.
