My thanks to Cherryl Hughes Fikes for providing this photo of her grandmother, great aunt & other Industries employees at their retirement in 1959.
I don't have a copy of the '59 Awards Banquet program at hand, but I do have one from '63, which lists retired employees in that era. Some of you may recognize some familiar names.
I also have an article from The Fort Bend Mirror covering Imperial Sugar's '59 Awards Banquet. More familiar names appear in it. It looks like one program covered the Imperial & Industries banquets, but the events were held on different nights.
