| Description: | Claude and Jewel Torrence came to the Valley in the first wave of settlers, moving from Pomona ,Ca. to Holtville, Ca.," they established a home place and ranch near Heber, Ca. . The Torrence's were originally from Colorado, where they were farmers. Claude and Jewel Torrence started “Torrence's Farm Implements” in 1939. Prior to that time Claude ran an automotive service/gas station in Heber, Ca. During the late 1930's farming in the Imperial Valley was rapidly growing due to the now abundant Supply of water from the Colorado river thru the all American canal, farmers growing crops in the area needed somewhere and someone to service their equipment; Claude Torrence and his service station became that place. From that day Claude saw the opportunity to not only provide his customers quality service but also quality equipment thus “TORRENCE'S FARM IMPLEMENTS” was born. Luther Hester, a Heber local; who had married Claude's daughter Helen, became Claude's chief sales representative and effectively directed the growth and future of “Torrence's Farm Implements”. After Claude's death, Luther became president of the growing company- Jewel Torrence (Claude's wife), Helen and Luther managed the business and employed a few service men. Luther sold the equipment and managed the store while Jewel and Helen handled all of the finances. The company that was started as a service station, had branched out into farm machinery sales and became synonymous with the local hay industry. |
