History of The Firm

Our firm was established July 1, 1956, when Mr. E. Leon Sackrider acquired the business of a predecessor firm. Subsequently, Mr. Tom Connelly became a partner and practiced with Mr. Sackrider until July 1965. At that time, Mr. Connelly moved to California and Mr. W. Earl Holler joined the firm. Mr. Holler had been practicing as a CPA in Vincennes for several years. In December 1965, Mr. C.E. Trummel joined the firm. Mr. Trummel had been practicing public accounting in Terre Haute for several years.

On October 1, 1970, Mr. Charles F. Bradford was admitted to partnership. Mr. Bradford had been employed by other public accounting firms in Terre Haute and had been employed by this firm for two years previous to that date. Effective October 1, 1971, the firm of Donald D. Rusk & Company merged with our firm and Mr. Rusk became a partner. Mr. Rusk had worked for other accounting firms and had acquired his own firm approximately two years before merging with our firm.

On September 24, 1974, the practice was incorporated as Sackrider Holler Trummel, Inc. The stockholders (partners) at that time were E. Leon Sackrider, W. Earl Holler, C.E. Trummel, Charles F.
