I used to go into Emily's 2-3 times a week for lunch. Her place then became Mickey's.

It seems to me that there was another sister, Mart, who was a singer that I used to know a little. She had a band or bands with Ralph Koziarski [[the Inside Band & the Outside Band).

I did business with the Gail & Rice Agency back in the day. They were pretty big at one time here in the area.

My Aunt grew up with the Gail's on Grosse Ille, a long time ago. She and my mom told me they also owned an office supply biz downriver somewhere...

Mary, not "Mart" T being next to Y & all...

Gail's Office Supplies had stores in Downtown Wyandotte as well as in the Penobscott building. The Penobscott branch closed down not that long ago [[sometime in the early 2000's). I don't recall Emily's being in the Penobscott, but I suppose it was possible and makes sense in that the Gail's had a large retail establishment in the building already. Strange, though I can remember when the Penobscott post office was the Brooks Brothers! I can recall the Place @ Congress & Shelby being called Emily's accross the street. I can remember the Ice Cream, T-shirts, and video games.
Geez I'm old, I got to go, there are kids on my lawn I need to yell at!

The office supply store was on Biddle Avenue in downtown Wyandotte.
