I was born and raised in Northern Michigan and find myself as an adult intrigued with learning more about this era in his and my grandmother's life. My beautiful grandmother is now 97 years old. Unfortunately my grandfather passed when I was a child. My understanding is there is now a jewelry store located at this address. I would love to view additional exterior and interior photos from the days of the restaurant. Is there a local chamber or Historical Society that I could inquire with?

I know it was before 1962 because we left the state then. They are 4 small angel figurines. They are 2 3/4" tall, all in colorful gowns - red, pink, blue, green. It's nostalgic for me in that my Mom gave me these and she is now gone. Does any one remember this product in the D&C Stores. Just curious. Thanks.

Mom worked there 1960-1968. Great place to work, wanting best effort, but treating employees well. Noted Courtney Klaus posted above looking for photos of store. Found one, link: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/33/01/9d/33019d12967e8dab40ff0152bf0856ea.jpg<br />I would check the library as they are very organized and probably have better photos. Jeff, made the trip up from Florida last month and it was great to see you last month at Zemp's Memorial get together. He would have been the source for photos everything Howell, but we're a month too late to ask...RIP.
