 Mr. Karlinger - 1962 |
| Memories of Karlinger
Store |
| I too, remember Karlingers
Store, Mr. & Mrs. and Rudy. Rudy would deliver grams
groceries in the truck. Memory of Polona Straus Filpi, Marie Straus, Roseann Podpechan, Wilma Prosence |
| I did not often go to
Karlinger' but was always intrigued by the mix of groceries, drinks,
and the tables by the door. Memory of Joe Lee Maghe |
| My dad would often
take Brother Larry and me along to Karlinger’s store. I remember being
fascinated by the ceiling fans. Memory of Dr. Joe Eugene Lepo |
| 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. Memory of Andy LaSota |
| Can't you just see the
pop machine and that candy counter where you could slide open those
glass doors and get your candy bar out for a nickel? The big oak
table in the front where the guys could visit and play cards while
sipping a cold beer. I can still hear the sound of that screen
door closing. I can just see Rudy fixing a sandwich after
slicing some lunch meat
from the meat counter. I spent many hours in that little store
after
school. Memory of Phyllis Liposek Bitner |
| Who can forget Rudy Karlingers
Store and Rudy himself. That was one of the most friendly places to go
as a child or a adult. I as a child can remember working in my
dads
garden at my grandparents place, taking a break over at Karlingers
Store
and going fishing in the afternoon with Paul Kranker, Leo Kobak, dad,
Rudy
Widmer Sr., and my brothers Mike and John. Memory of Henry
Ashbacher |
| I recall trips Karlinger's Store (my grandfather reportedly had worked there as a butcher after leaving the Coal Co.; my father knew an Augie Karlinger). My grandmother's home was on the approximate first west-leading road north of Karlinger's store (the Karlinger family house of the 1950s I believe backed up to my grandmother's backyard) Memory of John Ponce |
