Memories
of Hank's
Store
|
There was
Hank's (Mariotti)
store with the
men around the stove. Hank always had a kind word and a story or
photo of John Wayne. Memory of Joe Lee Maghe

I
can remember walking
to Karlinger's and Hank's stores to buy candy and whatever Mom needed
and didn't want to go to Arma to get.

I
can remember as a
little boy going across the street to Hank's store to get a pop, candy
or just to talk to Hank about baseball.

I was originally from
Pittsburg. For a time in the 60's I worked for Liggett &
Myers tobacco company (after I got out of the Navy after my first
enlistment) and I made regular stops in Henry's store just to chat with
him. He was a very interesting character, but at that time he
didn't sell much of anything; certainly very little tobacco
products. But I always looked forward to passing through
Franklin just to stop in, have a soda, and listen to some of his
stories. Lots of them were about John Wayne. He was a sweet
old man and what I wouldn't give to have a visit with him again. Memory of John Partin
