Hello Marshall County Folks,
I am assisting my father in writing his biography. He grew up in Plymouth,
Indiana and joined Boy Scout Troop #57 in 1941. His Boy Scout leader was Mr. M.
D. Strombeck who my dad recalls was the owner of the town dry cleaners and the
troop leader for many many years.
Mr. Strombeck had a great influence on my dad who lost his father at the age
of 7. My dad looked up to him and learned many things from Mr. Strombeck while
in his scout troop - even attaining the rank of Eagle Scout in 1944. He
recalls that Mr. Strombeck was a great outdoorsman and helped many of the young
scouts in town go on to become good citizens.
I'd like to include a photo of Mr. Strombeck or even a photo of his dry
cleaning business in Plymouth in the 1940s in the book. We'd love to hear from
anyone related to him and would really appreciate any photographs you would be
willing to share.
Many thanks in advance.
