WE RE OBSERVING THE
Of The M & M Bakery and Cafe
50 years ago when the M & M first opened its doors on July 6,
19H, O'Neill was just a bustling little prairie town. It was the
time of the baking day, the bustle and kerosene lamps.
We've made progress along with the town and we are grateful
for the confidence the folks of the community have had in us
and we take this opportunity to express our thanks.
