Mrs. Garber-A special dedication to a devoted Eagle fan Mrs. Garber has been the maker of our school ' s class flags for many years. She used to make the flags for all area schools, but now it ' s just Edison. Her husband ' s business is the Garber Lettering on Clay Street. Mrs. Garber has been regularly doing this work since she was 16 years old. I just decided to continue on after marriage ' she commented. They do anything from numbering to class flags. Depending on the size of a flag, it could take anywhere from 6 to 12 hours to make and prices could range as much as $150. Lettering for all the area school include: Lake Station, Hobart, River Forest, West Central, Kankakee Valley, and Portage among others. The company also does a lot of its business through local sporting goods stores. Mrs. Garber stated, I like doing work through the schools; it is very rewarding since all of our children are grown. We always try to do whatever we can for them. Mr. Garber is now retired. Now he ' s the Big Boss of our operation, kind of a janitor, secretary, bookkeeper, treasurer all rolled into one, said Mrs. Garber. 1. Mrs. Garber shows her work on lettering a varsity jacket. 2.
