Images of 2008







The Dec. 27 Chronicle featured the 'Year in Review' which included photos from the past year. Here are some that appeared in the paper and some that did not because of space limitations.

In September, Fred Weberling, longtime owner of Fred's Standard passed away; The fire truck carrying the casket of longtime Marengo Fire Chief Sam Bosserd passes by the Marengo Township Hall as firefighter Nick Young salutes with Bosserd's gear at his side; On Dec. 3, Dottie Brown, at her going away party, gets a farewell sendoff from Santa Claus, Chuck Christner; Last summer, the Brooks Memorial Fountain was inspected and the restoration process started in the fall; The new FireKeepers Casino broke ground in May and Tribe chair Laura Spurr was on hand when the final external beam was raised; After Dick Day died in an automobile accident Nov. 10, his wife Jarryl thanked the approximately 200 people that turned out Nov. 14 for a musical celebration of Day's life at the Marshall Activity Center.
