I only remember that my sister had a pleasant job with Friedenbachs when she was in her teens. I was 12 yrs younger and remember their Daughter Patricia
getting me in trouble for something she did and I was removed from my much
loved Spanish Class. I think I got over it tho.
She was a very adorable child. My sister loved her and spoiled her. I love
viewing the picts of long ago of their store. Really pleased to find them on the internet
