My buddy, the late Jesse Anderson lived in a Sears, Roebuck home all during his childhood years, Jesse's dad was a master carpenter, and undoubtedly had a hand in crafting the most beautiful little cottage you ever saw, right on Ward Avenue, adjacent to Greenwood Cemetery. I remember my Mom's admiration for that delightful little home. She typified it as being right out of a Shakespeare country English cottage. The lovely old home was demolished recently and all that remains is an ugly open lot with an uglier open excavation.
