The good old days…

January 28, 2010

Today Marlene Beresford (Walter) gave us some old pictures of the Ravenna General Store we want to share with you. Thank you so much, Marlene!

Looking towards today’s store, the building on the right was the first (original) store in Ravenna. Walters had the Ravenna store since around 1911. This shot faces north, away from the school.

The house before the store was built (pre 1946)

The store and house shortly after shop construction (i.e. around 1946-47)

Late 1940′s store & house with Lorne Walter and his little daughter Marlene.

Lorne and Mona Walter, builders and owners of the store (here in 1964)

and of course Rosmary and Larry Morton…

If anybody has more pictures of the history of Ravenna or the store – we would be more than happy to post them here!
