My first answer had the wrong dates.
It was R. Kempf and Brother Bank.
1876 until 1897
Alright, Ron! You can collect your dollar at the depot gathering on September 15.
A dollar? Mom - owning two homes has really gotten to you, hasn't it?! Maybe some Doug will split it w/ you! :)
That wasn't suppose to say "some Doug" -- at first I was going to say "some other grads" -- but remembered Doug's name and got confused when typing!
