"The Golden Oldies"

It was exciting to stop by and visit Jim & Pat Golden recently. Jim is 92 and Pat will be 92 in December. Jim was with the Local when it was still located at Rich and High St. He held a variety of offices with the Local and was the Superintendent with States Electric for many years. Myers-Banks of New York owned them. I was on the job when they brought in the first (Early 1970s) motorized platform lift, which was an 8'x10' platform that only went up and down. Jim & Pat say "Hi!" to all.
