THE VOY 1 THEATRE IN DOWNTOWN MAQUOKETA NOW HAS A LONG NEEDED NEW
ROOF! THE OLD WAS A PAPER AND TAR ROOF AND HAD TO BE RE-DONE EVERY
5 YEARS OR SO. NOW, THE WAY TO GO IS WITH RUBBER ROOFING, AS SHOWN
HERE. IT LASTS UP TO 20 YEARS OR MORE. SHOWN HERE ON THE ROOF IS
CLAY ROMER, OWNER OF CONNELL SUPPLY COMPANY, IN MAQUOKETA, SERVING
THE KMAQ AREA ROOFING NEEDS FOR OVER 50 YEARS. CLAY'S DAD, DUB,
STARTED THE BUSINESS AND PASSED AWAY AT AGE 90 THIS PAST JANUARY.
CONNELL SUPPLY COMPANY WAS ONE OF OUR FIRST ADVERTISERS IN 1958 AND
HAS BEEN ADVERTISING THE BUSINESS ON KMAQ ALMOST DAILY SINCE. IN THIS
