About Velva Darnell Electronics Software Development company in Brooksville, United States
In 1966 I opened my first shop in my hometown of Radcliff Kentucky where I spent all my life before moving to Florida. Radcliff is a small town located three miles from Fort Knox and has a population of about 5000 people but when you add all the military personal and their families that are stationed at the army base which at that time was the home to the 3RD. Armored division youre talking about a pretty good size community.
My parents moved to Radcliff in the 1930s when my father was stationed at Fort Knox and after serving four years in the service he decided to leave the military and go into business for himself. His first venture was a grocery store and service station combination which did so well for him that by 1950 he added a full service garage and wrecker service to his work load. As the town kept growing he was adding more building to house a variety of businesses and by 1960 he also owned and operated a gift shop and a wholesale auto parts store. His last adventure added in 1972 was a large wholesale electrical warehouse that grew to serve the entire county and beyond. Every business he started was very successful and all of them remained open until he decided to retire in the late 1970s.
