A “MOO” New Home
A “MOO” New Home
Travelers on Highway 32 passing the Old Creamery will notice something has changed. There is a new resident making its home on the front lawn, however, this resident is not new to Middle River. See page 5 of this week’s Honker for the “rest of the story.” Many of you may remember the “COW” standing in the yard of the Royal Manor. You may not know why it came to stand there so proudly for many years. I can tell you the background story. 2023-09-15 11:00 PM

Super Awarded for Many Years of Service to Middle River
Super Awarded for Many Years of Service to Middle River
When Tom Super took the oath of office as councilman for the city of Middle River, Jaws was the #1 movie, gasoline was 57 cents a gallon, the sliding hill and tennis court were not here, there was an average of 22 students in each grade at MR School, most of our streets were gravel, and everyone had a telephone hanging on the kitchen wall and had to stay within the length of the cord to talk! Times have changed but one thing has not -- Tom Super's dedication to the city of Middle River. Tom was born and raised in Mentor, graduating from high school in 1967. He graduated from Moorhead State College in 1972 and worked part time on the Burlington Northern railroad. He had just started his first teaching job at Sacred Heart in East Grand Forks when he was notified of a job opening with the Soo Line Railroad in Thief River Falls. In May of 1974 he moved to Middle River with his wife of 6 months, KayDell Henning. Tom recalls, “Instead of moving to Thief River Falls we chose to live in Middle River because of my love for hunting and also because of my friendship with my father in law Eddie Henning.” 2023-09-08 11:00 PM
