    Thanks! That list is a true treasure, gives a complete list of all the businesses along Mack! Now to start to find "Sarah", anyone else here remember her? Also, this list includes "petite Flower and Gift Shop" we always called it Lillian's, because the owner was Lillian. She lived in a small apartment in the back of the shop. Rumor had it she was a concentration camp survivor. She always wore long sleeves. We kids would try to catch a glimpse of her arm to see if she had a prisoner number branded, as it was rumored. She had a thick, German accent, but my mother said she was Dutch. I've also always wondered about her background and eventual fate. Anyone remember her? Oh, BTW, I'm talking about Mack between Newport and Lakewood, thanks!

    Also, does anyone remember Lillian's? Officially known as Petite Flower and Gift Shop on Mack between Newport and Lakewood, from back in the 50's--60's. It was a trinket type store, crafts, cards, etc.
