Letter to the Editor

Your View 7/26: Thanks

Friday, July 26, 2002

As you are aware, the Sikeston Depot is dependent on local volunteers who help with the exhibits and keep the Depot open to the public.

Recently the Standard Democrat mentioned the exhibits at the Sikeston Depot in honor of the 50th Jaycee Rodeo. Co-chairing the two exhibits of "Historical Highlights" and antique saddles were Julie Conway and Angela Gilmore. Helping with the presentation were Marilyn Grant and Joan Cowell. We are grateful to these women for their time and effort.

Too numerous to name are the wonderful citizens of Sikeston who loan their personal mementos for exhibits. The citizens of Sikeston are fortunate to have men and women in the area who are willing to share their collections with the public.
