Thanks to David Tafoya for giving me this "card'. When this card was given out by Fred McGrew Plumbing, the company was located in the "Jackson Building", at the corner of Bush and First Street. The Jackson Building was originally built as "Luxary Apartments", with comercial areas on the first floor. I remember the fun of visiting McGrew's shop with my Dad or my uncle John in the 1950's. For a  kid it was a real treat to wander around all the "stuff" Fred had there. One of the cool old "Woodland Buidings"

Good old Fred R. McGrew, the plumber. He always had a smile for everybody. And he was so laid back, sometimes to the point of being an oddball. He was a good friend of my father's, and at my fathers funeral, with everybody else dressed appropriately, old Fred showed up dressed like he was going to a picnic. He cracked me up. Fred's brother (I don't recall his name) was one of many of that generation struck by polio, but it didn't stop him from getting around town every day struggling along in his crippled waddle often near the plumbing store. Perhaps some of you recall seeing him down on Main Street.

Fred and Walt McGrew, I remember them well when I worked for the Yolo Grocery across the street.

Theresa Eve (1964)

I remember the MO letters needed to dial a telephone number.  All landlines, no cells.  There were party lines also.  Those were the days of personal contact to make conversation, write a letter, or use the landline to call.  A lot of going directly to the merchant for services.

I worked as a long distants operator in  Woodland. you had to go through the operator to call any long distants. I worked there for a few years.

I still have our original home phone number and it is still active in my home. MO2-5290. I don't answer it much any more because of all the spam and scam calls.

Greg Kareofelas (1962)

At some time in the early 1950's, at Holy Rosary School, they made and gave us all this "Dog Tag" with our name, address and phone number. So it had to be before the MOhawk was added. Does anyone else from HR still have theirs? Mine got saved because Mom put it aside and kept it for me :-)

Theresa Eve (1964)

Our Woodland Phone was:  662-8331.  Called Mother daily.  :

Barbara Avilla (Hurley) (1961)

Jeff Brown (1969)

Becky Knight (Tobitt) (1961)

MO2-6546 when we got a dial phone but before that our number was 33F4. It was a farm party line and ours was four rings. If the phone went out,  my Dad would go out and check the lines to see where it was down.
