Plattsmouth Portrait: Life and People in a River Town
A Bee-News feature explores Plattsmouth Nebraska 20 miles south of Omaha. It profiles leader figures at the Masonic home police and church communities, the Norfolk Packing Co. plant and BREX rail operations, local bankers and merchants, and the social cadence of Rotary and Wednesday coupon nights. The piece portrays a self reliant town rich in history and looking to a river enhanced future.
