This thread discusses the Content article: Spanish Fork Livestock Auction closes its doors

Wow,

Time marches on. I can remember going to the auction with my grandpa and uncle over 40 years ago.... ages me.. It was a great time. A 5 cent coke in hand, listening to the song of the auctioneer. We bought some sheep and a calf.

That is something most people will never experience or understand.

While I never had the pleasure to attend the auction in SF, I grew up in a farming community & have fond memories of the livestock auctions there. Soda was 25cents by that time, though To say that I was saddened when I first saw the segment run on this on Fox13 news, would be an understatement, & I cried along with those that were there for that last auction. Hold fast to your memories of that day, folks

The SF auction was a way of life to many. The memories will always be there. The Kelly's have done very well keeping the auction going this long.... Farewell to good times.... I remember
10 cents pop........LOL


The real sadness of this is the local people have to travel to buy now, and instead the area will bring more buildings and more traffic and the GREED continues.
