    I don't remember a Homer Hardy living there but there were three different families that lived in that house while we lived there which was in the 50's. I think we had moved by 1960.

    What was the name of the people that lived SW of Grant in a house on the north side of the street with a bunch of cases of beer or beer cans stacked under the carport on the east side of the house? It was a few houses west of Penn.

    Powell Chick the red headed cop!! He worked his off days at a business my dad owned driving a delivery truck, until he screwed up and gave my mother a ticket. We have very very unusual name, so there no way he could have made a mistake. I think he may have passed away, but I'm not for sure.

    I think he is still alive (69 years old). He has a house and phone listed on the north side of town.
