Beerbower Park was named in honor of Mayor Ernie Beerbower (1903-1966) who died in office. The site was originally home to Henry McCleary's lumber mill which existed prior to the door plant. The mill closed and fell into disrepair after the Great Depression while the door plant remained in operation.

This blog has been mostly retired but I will still check the comments for moderation occasionally on slow days. Think twice, post once. I place a high value on civility and publish them, or not, accordingly. Some might call this censorship. I call it having editorial standards. We both would be right.
