I was inspired by this story and totally blown away with the story and legacy of Bernary Henry Kroger. I hope to create such a legacy for my two children.
I find no records of a marriage or children. Does anyone know about these facts?
I am doing some research for a report I have to do for a college course. We were told to research The Kroger grocery store chain and where Mr. Kroger lived. It was really interesting reading up on the store and on him. Before today I hadn’t heard of this store nor man. I always tell everybody and myself that were always learning something new daily in our lives.
Whoa, whoa, get out the way with that good ifnomraiton.
