Naming Connecting Road

August 7, 2007

I read the article on naming the road between Harding and Ralston. My thought on the names is this. The land that the hospital sits on and most of the frontage on this connecting road once belonged to Sam Bunn and that road had been called Bunn Run for years. His daughter owned and ran Margie's Bar for years on the same location and it held alot of history in this area. Her father had the saloon in the house on the corner before that. Why don't we try and save some history in our town ( whether you like bars or not). My grandfather was a good friend of Sam Bunn and his family and my children and myself were close friends of Marjorie and Johnny Fugate. Many locals all have memories of the Bunn Family.
