Would you happen to have a ...kristina....<BR/> Would you happen to have a picture of the original cornucopia? Eaveys was the first childhood memory of a supermarket for me. Inside of the front door they had a place called the Kiddie Korral. It had a few child scaled western type tables and chairs surrounded by some timber railings. They would have a few torn up comic books. After climbing on the railings for 5 minutes it was time to go through the store to find mom and dad. Eaveys was the place where I saw my first live lobster. It was the place where I got my first coconut. I remember back at the meat counter they had miniature cow heads of the various types of beef. My mom still has a glass bowl that my grandma (who would lived with us during the winter- very harsh winters in S.W. Pa.) bought her. Grandma Saylor had never seen anything like Eaveys. She said it was like she had died and gone to heaven. Things were so simple back then.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384662678304810045.post-45666187154903806092009-01-23T18:11:00.000-05:002009-01-23T18:11:00.000-05:00Rick Bender is now the General manager of the Walm...Rick Bender is now the General manager of the Walmart Super Store where southtown used to be.
