Not much has been updated on the Beatrice Foods Memorial site for a few month's now, since the integration of the Bell System Memorial web site into The Porticus Centre.  Our intention is to make the entire Porticus Centre web site easier to navigate and to add more content as time goes by.  For Beatrice, we have quite a bit of material that we want to add in 2007.  One of the nice things about the Bell System Memorial joining the Porticus Center is that with the original site that was set up, there are ideas that can be implemented with the other memorial business sites on the Porticus Centre, including Beatrice.  One of these ideas is the "What's New" page, which will feature announcements of new additions to the Beatrice Foods Memorial site.

 

We want to thank all those who have visited this site and for the positive comments that we received.  There may not be much in the area of Beatrice Foods documentation and history on the web, but we are going to rectify that.
