If you read “50 Years Ago” in the “This Week in History” column in the newspaper, you read:
“Evergreen School Principal Clara Hewett called the trio “very special people” at a gathering at the school last week. Ruth Stafford, a cook there for the past 12 years; Leonard Kucera, a bus driver for the school for 16 years; and Ellen Struble, who has been school custodian for 18 years. They are all retiring after this year.”
