Couple stories to share...
from Lynda Thull

My Father is Fred Carmichael He worked in the main office
(Computer Operator) He was aka the Silver Fox!

He is now 88 and has been living with me since his wife passed in 2001.
He's beginning to have early stages of dementia, so needless to say
we are living in Chatham days as I speak lol. Last week Fred woke me
at 5am asking me for his keys, he needed to get home and by the way
he asked my husband and I how we got here?
I asked where is here? He said who brought all of our stuff to Gratiot
and placed in the warehouse. It took me 2 1/2 hrs to convince him
we were not in the warehouse. Two days later Fred woke me again
and told me to get out of bed and drive him to work before he was fired!
Again it took me an hr to settle him back to bed but later that day
his other daughter came by and asked if he still worked?
He replied NOT ANYMORE..I am sure I am fired lol.
For the last 2 months his Tv in his room is now called the computer,
when he runs his test he cannot understand why he isn't getting a print out!
Fred is again living the Chatham days and loving it all over again. ;)

My Sister Leanne Carmichael also worked in the Deli at store 42, 41, 33
and my sister in law Debbie Kehoe was a key puncher in the main office
along with my father. She keeps in contact with 3 other girls so she said
she will spread the word. I was to young to work at Chathams but I did have
a 3 yr experience at Kroger on the night shift.
I know how much fun a store chain can be!

Thanks, Lynda Thull

Even though we forgot to ask, many people pitched in $ to help and Joan Stress had enough to
cover all her cost for the location and even send a major portion to the Bernie Weisberg family charity.
