Did you ever hear the one about the 5,000 pound roller at the Bluffton Stone Quarry?

Here's a Bluffton story that we bet you've never heard. Tobi Meyer sent it to the Icon.

It involves a 1940 Ford dump truck and Richard Benroth, Charles Hammer and Charles Hankish.

Interested? Read on. Here's what Tobi shared with the Icon. Open the attachment to read the story.

"My mom has a small magazine that belonged to my dad, Charles Hammer, who died in March.

"The magazine is Ford Times, published by Ford Motor Co. It includes an article that was published in the March 1960 edition. I've attached a copy of the article. It involved my dad, along with Charles Hankish and Richard Benroth. I believe that these three men had worked together at the Bluffton Stone Co. at one time.

"I thought you might be interested in sharing this story with other Icon viewers. Tobi Meyer
