Does anyone remember a Sr. Jeanine at St. Jude?
z, can you give us a time frame and maybe a grade range?
Unfotunetly no. I've still been trying to find out nicknames of some of the other catholic grade schools and saw a lady from St. Veronica's on the NorthEast Detroit Alumni thread on FB. She couldn't remember their nickname but asked me if there was a Sr. Jeanine whom she knew in Mesa who supposedly taught at St. Jude but couldn't supply any other info. I told her I'd ask the group.
Mkap: Do you remember Jeff Purdue? I recently friended him on FB. Another Firebrat
St. Raymonds was the Blue Rays. Never would have guessed that one
Was the gift shop we've trying to come up with the Sphynx?
z, you may be onto something there. that sounds familiar to me as well. does anyone have any access to Detroit city directories for the 60-70's?
According to the listing of sisters on St. Jude's facebook page, I think there was a Sr. Jeannine Thomas McGooray - the letters got blurry as I zoomed in.
It's McGorray and I did a web search on her but couldn't find any info.
It was the Sphynx to the best of my recall - next door to the bakery, right? Now, which was the ritzy gift shoppe at the corner of Morang and ? kitty corner from Chathams?
yes, Polish dinner on 11/22 - also date of big raffle!
Wait -- was it the Sapphire Gift store on Morang?
Yes, it was Sapphire Gift Shop on Morang in the same strip as Normandy Optical, a dry cleaners, a surf shop later on, a pizzeria, and a stereo shop on the corner of Riad and Morang, which used to be Krupa's grocery. Can't remember the other stores back then.
The Stereo shop was Pecars? right?
I remember that Pizza place. I think I earned $5 passing out a million flyers door to door!
No. Pecar's was down past Kavan's. I think it was Sound Advice. After it was Krupa's, it was Roaring 20's Food Market, Morang Produce [[I remember it was painted beige and had fruit painted all over it. You could see it from the upper floors of Denby), then Sound Advice.
