Description : Royal Banks across the country celebrated the 125th Anniversary of the Royal Bank of Canada last Wednesday, with birthday cake, balloons and giveaways. The first 125 customers through the door received free pine tree seedlings, and the Bradford Branch also gave away five copies of the illustrated history of the Bank, "Quick to the Frontier." One of the recipients was 92 year old Bill Fuller, a life-long resident of Bradford who, with his wife Mae, helped to cut the cake. Bill Fuller shared his reminiscences of the early days of Bradford; he and the Bank represent 217 years of experience. The Bradford Branch opened its doors in 1955. A number of photographs of the bank when it first opened are on display. 125th Anniversary draw winners at the Bradford Branch of the Royal Bank were Eileen Madden, Pat Pitre, Jack Eek, Margaret Brush, Carol Harmon and Sharon Beamish.
