Please...Am I addressing his "family",an employees..or better yet a loyal patron?

1. "Stan never spent a day in jail..." You have to get caught or have friends in high places with deep pockets to stay out of jail. And please, refer to my prior post...I stated..."Someone posted on his memorial, etc."

2. "Stan charter fished to keep the restaurant afloat..." (among other things.)

3. "He had the water tank put in Goodland." Stan was the largest consumer of water at the time. The cost to have the water trucked in to the consumer was high. Not to mention...the remaining residents experienced low water pressure during Stans peak consumption hours. Didn't make for a happy community..nor did it make his wallet fatter, being trucked in.

3."He got light s put in on the curving road..." His "patrons were parking along the curvy road, because he converted his parking lot into a dance floor. He was liable for any injuries/deaths due to his "patrons staggering back to their vehicles.

4. "He helped Betty Bruno put several kids through College and he donated to charities." Stan was a "cash only" business for many years. As he accepted credit cards, paper trail...Donations are an excellent tax write off.Also...I can name numerous kids in Goodland that never had the opportunity to go to College.

Stan did put Goodland on the map in one regard...can you figure out what that is?
