PHOTO GALLERY OF GIBSON HOUSE SOUTH ROOM DEDICATION - Saturday, November 14, 2009
The first floor South Room of the Historical Society's Gibson House was dedicated to the memory of Nelda Kern Graham. Her husband, James "Art" Graham, was responsible for remodeling this room with new window box and frames, fireplace and mantle, door frames and a new speaker's podium. "Art" is a master carpenter and woodworker. We are forever grateful to him for volunteering his time and skills to make this room into a work of art.
