Lathan,
I think I remember Rita Bird. I believe she was related to the Birds who lived in Sunnybrook. Their father worked at the Ice Cream Plant on Norton Ave. when it was called FOREMOST (I Think)...
Just wanted to let you know - today I received my 2012 Social Security Stimulus Package. It contained two tomato seeds, cornbread mix, a prayer rug, a machine to blow smoke up my back side, 2 discount coupons to KFC, an "Obama Hope & Change" bumper sticker, and a "Blame it on Bush" poster for the front yard. The directions were in Spanish.
