Friends,

I have lived in Loyal about 12 years and in Clark County 47 years.

My husband is in the insurance business and my son and I have a small restaurant.  We also have a daughter and three grandchildren.

During the summer months our whole family spends a great deal of time outside, most of the time it’s fishing.  My particular hobby is gardening.  I raise about 10 bushels of tomatoes, all kinds of vegetables and have a strawberry patch.  My greatest enjoyment comes from my flower garden.  I raise all kinds but the best of all of them are my gladiolus and dahlias of all sizes and colors.

Mrs. Grace (Jack) Pribnow, Sr.

Loyal, Wisconsin
