In August, Troy McMillion, the owner of the Berne staple bar, passed away and handed ownership of his business to his daughter, Kelsie Low.
Low says in the days before her father died, he’d talked about wanting a signed poster from the cast of the Happy’s Place sitcom.
With some help from NBC, 21Alive was able to get a signed poster to Kelsie, fulfilling her late father’s wish.
“The family of Troy McMillion would like to express their deepest gratitude to NBC and the Happy’s Place cast for their thoughtful gift. Monday would have been Troy’s 74th birthday, so the timing of its arrival was perfect. Troy spoke daily in his last few weeks of life of his wish for a signed picture to hang in his own bar, also known as Happy’s Place. Our hearts are so warmed that this wish was so kindly honored. Troy would have talked about this and showed all his customers for years to come!”
