Chas and Dorothy Leeper, known to their friends as “Chuck” and “Dot,” are pictured from left. They both graduated from Otis High School and were married in 1932. They moved to Holyoke in 1939 when Chuck was employed by Standard Oil Company as a commission agent, where he worked until he retired in 1970. Dot was employed at Holyoke Federal Credit Union in 1958 and served as manager until her retirement in 1985. She was instrumental in getting credit union directors to purchase the First National Bank building as a permanent home for the credit union. — Source: Phillips County Museum
