Id Love to see everyone sharing their memories.

My grandparents Leonard and Verona Trost and my dad Larry Trost dedicated their lives to their friends neighbors and customers. I grew up at the elevator where I learned how to play "Sheephead" (4 point pitch) from the old timers and heard so many stories that I will never forget. So many of us school boys learned about hard work when we were hired to shell corn in the summertime. Grandpa and dad were always the first to get out a grain truck to pull someone out of the ditch or the snow. They would come in anytime of the day or night to unload grain or go to the field to help someone who was having trouble. The old downtown elevator was an icon of growing up in Yutan. It was hard to watch it come down as scrap. Although dad toughed it out (like a good old German) I know it was really hard for him to watch. So many great memories. I will miss it.
