Here's perhaps the most frightening Bluffton post card of all time. The identification line on the right reads: The burning oil tanks Bluffton Ohio (publishinged by Sidney Hauenstein).
Sorry to say, we know nothing about this fire. The message side of the card does not clearly show the postmarked year. The message has nothing to do with the fire. It reads: Have forwarded box of fresh prunes from Santa Rosa, Ca. for yourself from Gwendolyn Lenore and Mary (?).
My husband and I have noticed lately that a lot of people seem to be using Maple Grove Cemetary as a dog park. There have been several instances where we have gone out there and have seen people walking their dogs or just letting them run freely.
We have also witnessed someone letting their dog run around urinating on headstones while the owner just walked around talking on their cell phone.

Mennonite Home Communities of Ohio honors its many volunteers during a late March volunteer reception at Ebenezer Mennonite Church.
According to Mary Ann Ring, director of volunteers for MHCO, during 2011 more than 240 volunteers contributed over 6,000 hours of time.
"At the annual MHCO Volunteer Reception, we celebrate all volunteers," said Ring. Volunteers assist at all MHCO campuses including Mennonite Memorial Home and Maple Crest Senior Living Village.
