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.

1928: A SEARS ROEBUCK HOME
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.
Was this near the place with all those Jesus signs years ago?
