July 28, 1979, Saturday Aunt Estelle wrote

Clear, cloudy.  Janice called and asked me to go to Norton with her and I did.  Nearly burned up.  Raining tonite. 



Footnote by Pat:    Janice is her daughter who lives in Big Stone Gap - about 9 miles East.  Norton is a town about 10 miles Northeast from Big Stone Gap.  Norton had Cohen's Department store and a lot of other stores that were different from the stores in Big Stone and Appalachia.  You had to travel thru Appalachia to get to Norton.    The first job I ever had was in Norton at Time Finance Co.   That is where I meet Ron Statzer, he was working for the radio station WLSD in Big Stone Gap and came to Time Finance to sell them commercial time.     I bought my going-away wedding clothes at Cohen's.     Estelle's neice, Sandra Reasor Hunt lives and works at the Hospital in Norton.
