Herlong Junction Update

Recently, Mark Kesterson shared his memories about Herlong Junction and I know some would be interested in his comment. May be some one in the future and can provide further knowledge and/or a vintage photograph of the same.

“Gone is Paul Silva’s Rel Grand, and restaurant, “Nick” Nickeson’s gas station, and Len Varley’s grocery store.  There was also a small detached 4-plex apartment in back.  There were many other businesses there over the years, but those were the one I remember as a kid in the 50’s and early 60’s.  Paul’s wife Philomina ran the bar after Paul passed away, then Phil Lock ran the bar for a while.  The restaurant came and went several times over the years, and the store part of the building was used by different retail adventures.”

  1. Remember it well, along with the familiar names!
    Mark and I graduated together, and haven’t been able to hook up on FB, Messenger, or email.
    Thank you both for the memories!
