John Fitzgerald Kennedy was president of the United States the day that Marlys LaBlanc, of Prairie Farm, began working at Barron Supply, in April 1962.
Fifty-five years later, LaBlanc, 73, was honored March 31, 2017, by Barron Supply and its parent company, Jennie-O Turkey Store, for her more-than-half a century of service.
