If one would set out to discover the treasure, culture, and history of Mentone -- one would not go far without meeting him, because his hand has touched so much in so many ways. Holley Midgley has been our "chronicler." Never have I known a person more accomplished, intellectually curious and determined. Community activist, historian, river explorer, publisher, lover of life and fishing buddy. Our "man for all seasons." We will miss you, Holley.
