"SMITH, RALPH - MAE VEENKER
Ralph was the son of Dick and Anna Geerdes Smith and he married Mae, who was the daughter of Ralph and Fannie Casjens Veenker. After a few years in George, the family moved to the Johnson farm south of town where Ralph had grown up and continued farming until they retired to town. Their son, Jerry, then started farming the place.
Ralph was proud of the horses he used to farm and enjoyed buying and selling them.
As their family grew, Mae didn't always have time to bake bread so Ralph went to town every day"
