The M&M Cross Service Center has served area farmers and motorists for 73 years. This year, Mark Cross celebrates his 44th year at M&M. “The original business began in 1946 in Portageville with my father and uncle,” said Cross. The original place was located Portageville where Leroy Tires and Trisha’s BBQ is now, he added. On Friday as part of their Customer Appreciation event, the service center hosted a Crawfish and Shrimp boll, along with drawings and discounts throughout the day.
