My Mom worked at the Wards drug store just on the other side of Barbers on Houston Street for years til it closed. Oh Gosh the memories! Eatting at Terry's cafe, I got "paid" to do mom's candy inventory so I would take my hard earned cash and go to Terry's and order something, usually their teacakes. Never have found anything better ever since.
And I remember sitting at 8th and Houston many times when mom worked to watch the parades. oh thank you for taking these so that they may never be forgotten.
