He was recognized by International Harvestor as the largest corn and soybean combine dealer in North America from 1983 to 1999. Over his career spanning 61 years, Bernard has sold to 4 generations of farmers. Bernard was currently serving on the Board of Director’s for Security State Bank, a post he has held for many years.
