It's been well over 17 years since the family business B. Barer And Sons was sold to Oxarc, one of it's suppliers. However the company has come up in an interesting "guess who" in the Walla Walla Union-Bulletin. Annie Charnley Eveland,
published a picture taken by the Rose Street Steel Warehouse above. Readers have had fun guessing who the bearded man could be.
My Uncle Arny (my dad's brother) guessed that it may have been Scotty Cook, who my dad wrote about in his
blog years ago. Eveland wrote a little about what she learned about Scotty and mentioned my dad and Uncle Arny in a recent edition of her feature column
"Etcetera".
