Sam Eiland’s Long Career Tied to Dothan Growth and Politics
Sam Eiland, longtime manager of Alabama Machinery and Supply in Dothan since 1927, describes his firing love for travel and fishing, his start with Minnie the soft drink wagon girl, and his shift from Shelton County politics. He credits Dothan’s growth for a moved shop, notes his quiet political stance, and reflects on his Mason and Baptist affiliations.
