Bob had a passion for several things, two of them being children and Farm Bureau. In addition, even after retirement, he always brought a Christmas Tree into the Farm Bureau office. To help those who are less fortunate, and as a way to honor Bob, the "Bob's Tree" project was created. The community is urged to bring in new, homemade, or gently used scarfs, hats, and gloves for children and adults, to be displayed on a Christmas tree, into the Farm Bureau office from now until December 2, 2022. The items will then be donated to needy children in the county. All who donate a scarf, hat, or gloves will be entered into a drawing for a gift card. The drawing will be held on Friday, December 2, 2022. Parents of the FCHS Class of 2023 are hosting a Christmas Cash Raffle to
