Letter: please revisit this picture and the good memories again Richard Robertson writes: Today, Face Book asked me if I wished to share this memory of a successful, bountiful, and memorable cider pressing in 2012, which I'd also shared with Columbia Magazine. The people of Columbia and Adair County have an uncountable amount of memories, of the long lived people in this photo. I'd like to ask the community to take note of the photo again, hoping it will prompt pleasant memories of those pictured. The three folks in the middle of the picture are no longer with us: Mrs. Pelly, Edgar Holmes (A veteran of 2 foreign wars!), and Margarete Perkins. Sam Pelly is now a centurion and Buck Perkins, still driving, occasionally stops by the old place when he goes to visit Margarete, who lies in rest at nearby Mt. Carmel Cemetery. I think Buck's visit to see Margarete are frequent. Buck tells me that after 73 years of marriage, the physical disolvement of their union is a hard burden to accept.Comments re photo 47115 It was successful apple pressing 2018-10-23 05:56:15 | Comments | Printable version
