Thanks Barry. What memories this brings back. I remember attending the Decatur County Song Fests and Archie COONTZ was the master of ceremonies or whatever.! and Warren Eliason was Superintendent at LeRoy Consolidated School when I graduated from High School. My class was the next to last class to graduate from LeRoy. Then they consolidated with Humeston and Garden Grove and became the MORMON TRAIL SAINTS!. Thanks again. I've had my picture taken by Vaughn Smyth. Thanks Jack and Barry's Mom for confirming who I just thought he was.
