William “Allen” Swisher
William “Allen” Swisher, 92, of Piedmont, died March 6, 2024. He was born November 20, 1931, to Allen Russell and Anna (Schoneman) Swisher on the family farm, north of Piedmont. His mother was a nurse, who served as the community midwife. Allen was delivered by Dr. C.D. Baird, Eureka, who made house calls at that time. His father, born in Coffeyville, Kansas, was a miller, railroader and oilfield worker. Family lore placed him as the boy in the photograph looking through the wooden fence at the displayed corpses of the Dalton Gang after their botched raid on two banks in Coffeyville. 03/12/2024 11:00 PM

Meatloaf, mashed potatoes and green beans with a double side of banana pudding. Now that sounds like one of my wife’s meals or my mother’s or maybe the Stigler Café. But it isn’t. Who knew that such a meal could be prepared in the gourmet kitchen of a gas station? I don’t recall the gas stations of my youth having more than a coke case and a Tom’s jar with peanut butter crackers. 03/12/2024 11:00 PM
