Edit: After reviewing the comments, it appears this may have been Mother’s which was just south of Tigerton on Highway 45 and burned down in the 1995. We appreciate the responses.

Here is a photo from the 1950s showing Roy Kauffman about to do some butchering of chickens for the Badger Lumber Company.
