My grandfather owned a Rexall drug store in a small Tennessee town from the mid 40's through the mid 70's. It had a soda fountain and I used to spend summers there starting around 1965 bugging the staff and as I got older actually working at the store, making deliveries, scooping ice cream, making milk shakes and ice cream sodas. Times were so simple then.

A good pharmacist is hard to find Molly is rare. My pharmacist just passed away 😢 I had him as a pharmacist since I was a teenager, I was in a bad car wreck at the age of 17 & had an aortic dissection which required heparin blood thinner once I was home from the hospital no pharmacy could find that medicine for me, but Mark drove 2 hours away to get me what I needed and I'll forever be thankful for that.
