Frank CadyDateline Capital City: Word has reached us of the passing of the state’s rural icon Samuel Drucker at age 96. Sam, as he was known so fondly by the people of many small communities here abouts, was a civic leader and proprietor of the Hooterville General Store for many decades until its closing in 2001.

He is reported to have died at his post greeting patrons at the Super Walmart in Pixley, which opened shortly before his own store closed.
