Yep! There was a well known BBQ place in that area called Milts Barbecue, Milts was loved by many, provided jobs in the community as he could, excellent food, Chandler Park Golf Club member etc. He was gunned down in his store [[by one of his own employees). The family soldiered on for a while but finally closed shop a few years after.

That HW/ Hayes area is just too predatory by a few making it bad and nearly unlivable for the rest.

He couldn’t stay open, it wasn’t his fault.
