You are looking at a photograph of a confirmation class from St. John's United Church of Christ (E&R) from the 1950s. (Or, we should ask, is this a combined confirmation class from St. John's and Emmanuel?) Rev. Opperman is the pastor and several familiar residents are members of the class. We'll defer to Icon viewers for those specific identifications, which should arrive soon.
The last name roll call on this photo includes Jordan, Zimmerly, Core, Michel, Badertscher, Tschantz, Criblez, Neuenschwander and, who did we miss?
The photo was taken by Leland Gerber, who had a photo studio on Main Street (now a parking lot of Citizens National Bank). The photo is from the collection of Fred Steiner.
