Hanson's Tire and Lube began as Hanson's Champlin in 1964. It was owned by Willard and Borgel Hanson and operated by Russ, Keith, Larry, and Willard until 1966 when Russ enlisted in the US Navy and served for 4 years. Willard, Keith and Larry operated the business from 1969 - 1971. Willard and Keith operated the business in 1972. Willard then sold the business to Keith and Jerry Hanson, who was another brother, He ran the business until 2002. After Jerry retired, Kyle Hanson became partners with Keith and the business name changed to Hanson's Tire and Lube. We remained in the same neighborhood after moving 1000' to the north and across the road from the original business. |
