The Hutchinson News
Several area agencies will receive an extra level of support thanks to a $2.2 million gift to the Hutchinson Community Foundation from the estate of the late Bonnie and Franklin Fee.
Born in Hutchinson in the 1930s, both attended school here before departing to the University of Kansas in Lawrence.
But Hutchinson and family drew them back and in the early 1950s, Franklin and his brother Jim joined their father Frank’s real estate and insurance firm, the Frank Fee Agency.
Through a series of mergers, by 1957, it had become a partnership between the three called the Fontron-Fee agency, with a Hutchinson lineage dating back to 1883.
