Just wondering how many of you remember the Apgar Trucking Company located up on Union Avenue where Somerset Savings Bank sits now from back in the day?

I remember Apgar Trucking, Green and yellow Mack trucks.. I went to school with Susan Apgar. MY Aunt lived on Maple Ave. I remember being at her house and hearing what I think was air starters on the trucks, they would make a loud whistle type noise. Then through my high school years,we used to hang out at Crusaders and play touch football in Apgars parking lot of white stones..

My grandfather and his brother and sister were partners in the trucking business. My father was never involved, but I remember always getting a kick out of seeing an Apgar Brothers truck on the PA Turnpike or somewhere far from BB after getting married and moving away. ~Sue Apgar
Hi, my name is Tracy and my Dad worked for Apgar, I was wondering if you might remember him: John Mitch Herndon. He was killed on the job and I was trying to learn more about him through people that may have known him considering I was very young when he was killed. Any information would be helpful. TYIA
