Eddie the Barber Retires, Sign Card

Eddie DiPonzio owned the 2nd longest-lasting business from the old days on Thurston Rd. After Crowley, his shop had been here longer than anyone's. And his memories of all who lived in the neighborhood; he could tell you whose sister married the guy one street over, how many siblings Mike had, and where his dad worked. Such tidbits made getting a haircut at Eddie's even more of a treat. It was fun waiting as you listened, and seeing who you would meet.His customers now also live in Gates,…See More

See Sept/Oct issue of (585)magazine for this article on how volunteers have renovated the historic Rochester graveyard, under the stewardship of our friend John Curran. John is a member of the 19th Ward Community Association's History and Archives Committee. As the opening sentence says, "one of Rochester's best-kept secrets is a pioneer cemetery in the 19th Ward."

Of course I'm your friend, and you are my friend. By being friends, what does that have to do with Location 19? Will we get a free pizza from Menenzes? That would be nice. I'll even pay for it!

At 12:28am on July 20, 2014, John Boutet said…: OK, Problems with MacClurg's double accounts have been taken care of. You reinstated her newer account on the Southwest Garden Group and suspended the old one which has been unusable by her but has been causing confusion. I also suspended her old account from Location19. That will leave her old content on the site and avoid people sending messages to the old account that she cannot receive emails from.

I can best answer your question by having you check out our website www.simplifiedbuilding.com.

Our bread and butter is railing, but clothing racks, desk/table frames, and fitness structures are just a few of the many other applications of our pipe fittings.

Hope to meet you in person some day!

At 7:25am on April 27, 2012, Laura Suda said…: Hi Mark,

I'm attaching the form for you to use to request free trees from the city. My husband and I started out identifying which homes on our street had no trees in the tree lawn/subway. At those homes where no one answered the door, I attached to the request form a note providing my contact information. I did find that most of my positive results came when I had personal contact with the neighbor.

The person to contact at the city is Rick, Rochester Dept. of Forestry, phone 428-1218.

If you have any other questions, let me know.
Good luck!
