            Sale 
            of Kerrigan Funeral Home keeps ownership local [JUNE
            27, 2002]  
            The family of the late J. Richard 
            Kerrigan, owner of Kerrigan Funeral Home, Lincoln, has announced the 
            sale of the funeral home to Don Peasley of Atlanta. One of only 
            three funeral homes in Lincoln, the funeral home name will change to 
            Kerrigan-Peasley Funeral Home effective July 1.  |  
            | Dennis Kerrigan, 
            family spokesman, said, "The family is pleased to have found a buyer 
            who was born and raised in the Lincoln area. We think our father 
            would be happy with our decision." Don Peasley, 38, has 
            worked in the funeral industry for 17 years in Atlanta and other 
            locations throughout central Illinois, including Quincy, Decatur, 
            Peoria and Bloomington. Don has a long history of service to the 
            people of Logan County through activities that include the 4-H 
            Cooperative Extension programs and emergency medical and fire 
            departments. "I look forward to 
            moving to Lincoln from Atlanta and continuing to serve the people of 
            Logan County," Don said. "My goal is to provide quality and 
            dignified service."     [to top of second column in

             Kerrigan Funeral Home 
            was opened in 1933 by John Kerrigan, father of J. Richard Kerrigan, 
            at a Kickapoo Street address. The business moved to its current 
            Delavan Street location in 1946. Family-run for nearly 70 years, 
            this sale provides that the business will remain owner-operated. The Kerrigan family 
            thanks "the many families who entrusted their loved ones to the care of our 
            father’s and grandfather’s business over the years," said Dennis. "We also thank Joe Rabbit for his years of service with the funeral 
            home." Joe is returning to his hometown of Streator. [Press

 In
            the know… You
            finally discover where the best chai in town is and you’re
            ecstatic! Then you discover it’s been there a year or so and no
            one told you about it. You’re exasperated! Local businesses change
            hands, move, increase their stock or services, do all sorts of
            things you’d really like to know about, and somehow you don’t
            get in on it. |

            waiting for — "Chamber Chat." It airs from 5:30 to 6 p.m. 
            Tuesdays. The
            Lincoln/Logan County Chamber of Commerce hosts the weekly
            half-hour LIVE talk show. "Chamber Chat" features 
            updates on local business activity, community events, issues, and 
            interviews with volunteers and leaders of special programs taking 
            place in the community. There will also be opportunity for viewers 
            to call in with live questions. There are plans to
            occasionally film segments on location in local businesses to add to
            the perspective and content of the show. The show
            will air several additional times each week, but Tuesday night will
            be the LIVE show. [Click
