The "Good
Will" Market
This 1977 photo shows the "Super Market" with the Fire Hall in
the distance. The building is still on Main Street - hidden under
Joe Radnic's new steel siding.
The store was run by Vince Cowley in the 80's. He had the basic
dairy products, bread and lots of canned goods. The "boys" came in
every morning to play cards and drink coffee. |
