After work in Muscatine on Thursday, July 3, 1952, Dale drove the family to Osceola by 10 p.m. He wrote, “Cool but car overheated. Mother was working in Marie’s store, so was Carol.” Marie (Dale’s sister) and Ralph Kimmel’s new store is on the left above, adjacent to their old store. They had the best ice cream in town. Carol was the oldest daughter of Dale’s brother Lloyd.
