Before there was Community Market there was Urich's IGA Market. This advertisement is from the Bluffton High School 1959 yearbook. At that time Urich's was on Main Street in a storefront now occupied by the expanded Citizens National Bank building.

The IGA eventually moved to Vance Street to become Urich's IGA Foodliner. It has had one renovation, which doubled its buildling size and today the business is owned by Community Market.

In this photo are Ramon Lewis (left) and Owen Ziessler. Icon viewer comments are welcome.
