One of the signatures on the diploma was by a member of the school board named Tillemans but we weren’t sure who he was. Mike Tillemans of this community unlocked the mystery when he began to check it out. Turns out the man signing the agent docu- ment was H. J. Tillemans, who was the president of the Farmers & Merchants Bank of Minneota. H. J. Tilleman was the treasurer of the Min- neota School Board at the time the diploma was issued. He also was Mike Tillemans grandfather. Tractor Is there any doubt as to Omer Laleman’s trade before he retired. is tractor is lit up in his yard each year on Jeffer- son Street in Minneota.
