Crunch time!

For those of you who are trying to think of the music store down the street from Red Barn on Ninth South, RK Sound was on the West side of State Street in that area.

 Johnny Carlson's Living Room was down the street on the East side of the street on Seventh South and State Street.

A Few Memories. . .

Coral Williams (Paladino)

For those of you who are wondering about the music store on State Street, it was RK Sound located on the West side of the street just North from the old Red Barn. 

John Carlson's Living Room was down the street on the East side of State Street and 7th South.

Thank you Coral.  Nothing was coming to mind after all the parties and all the years.  

Thank you for the memories Jeff.  Did some time at all of those places.

Carolyn Burnett (Taylor)

That's my neck of the woods. I lived on 2nd East between 7th and 8th South.

Carolyn, I started grade school at Sumner Elementary. Lived at 755 South 200 East at the time. The house I lived in was tore down in the '60s.

Carolyn Burnett (Taylor)

Hi Woody

I lived in a red brick house with a green duplex on the left  and a empty lot on the right. I also went to Sumner. I moved to central city in '62. Started there in the 5th grade. Had Scandland in 6th and Willardsen in the 7th. Can't remember 5th maybe Handford. My mom lived there until '76

My house is also torn down. I know farther down the street there are a group of apartments. I'm trying to picture where your house was. Thanks for bringing up some good memories.

Loved the memories, Jeff.  Lots of fun and special times in those places!  

The Rat Fink memories are more recent.  We love visiting the Big Daddy Ed Roth museum during the Rat Fink Reunion in Manti.  If you''ve never seen it, it's worth the trip to see his many, many creations besides what we are most familiar with. It's only open during the annual  'reunion' and by appointment but our motercycle group go down often.

Did you happen to notice the price of the ticket for THE DOORS concert at Lagoon's Patio Gardens?  How much would you be willing to pay today for the opportunity to see that concert live and up-close today?

The Rat Fink Reunion is a fun Utah event! A great Motorcycle and Car Show too... John Hansen from Irving Jr High School days drew my first Rat Fink on my sweatshirt. It was a Rat Fink riding on a motorized skateboard. I was surprised to learn the "Ed Big Daddy Roth" lived and worked in Utah! It's still, fun to be young, again.

Just a quick thought, as I am trying to aid Pres. Trump...ha, use to go to Rat Finks shop...had a few good talks...Johnny Carleson put an alarm on My Malibu, after purchasing a tape system from Him ( I think it was a 4 track :-) A little while later, someone, who knew right where the alarm switch was, switched it off and stole everything...sometime later, Johnny found Himself in trouble with the Law, and was shut down. Wally, the Guy selling tapes from His trunk by THC, also got in trouble, as I recognized some of MY tapes that got stolen :-) I'm old, but this is how I remember it  (oh, the good old days - gave Me a chance to switch to 8-track :-)

...Big Daddy had a shop right behind Cummins Diesel, 1038 So. 2nd West ( which was Our address, before Our Home was demolished, and Cummins expanded to it ) so He was basically in Our back yard...not sure how long He stayed there - it was not really public-info that He was there :-)

Yes, in the short time I lived in Nashville, Tennessee as a teenager the group I fell in with were the "Rat Finks."  I lost my finks ring a few years ago but I did wear the color, even if only for a short time.  When I got back to Salt Lake their werer no Finks.

A big thank you to Jeff Chivers for helping us navigate the Medicare transition from employment to retirement.  My husband, Lou, and I are Impressed with his efforts and personal interest in our case. It is so helpful to have a trusted and informed professional looking out for our best interests.  We would highly recommend him to all seniors. Thanks again Jeff!

Ernest "Buzz" Fontana

A big shout out to Jeff Chivers! Had a wonderful visit with him the other day. The man is brilliant. 100% helpful. I hope everyone that needs help will give him a shot. It's well worth it. Thank You Jeff! Now who do I talk to about a golf lesson......Buck are you there? Scott, I know you are laughing. Oh Well. GIVE JEFF A CALL!

I also would like to thank Jeff Chivers for his vast knowledge of the system. I don't know how we would ever have made it through the retirement process without him, 

Carolyn Burnett (Taylor)

I've worked with Jeff for 2 years. The 1st  year we went into depth on my needs and the 2nd year we just reviewed my changes over the phone. I am pretty shy, and he was very easy to talk to. I highly recommend Jeff Chivers to help you choose the right plan and company that  will meet your needs. 

Jeff Chivers

Gosh Carolyn, Julie, Buzz & Sherrie, thanks so much for your kind words. 

Despite your expressions of gratitude, I honestly believe I'm the one who has benefited most from our associations; having the unique opportunity of renewing cherished relationships and developing close bonds with so many of my former classmates. 

Looking forward to continued friendships!!

Happy Mothers Day . Also, just adding a "shout-out" to Jeff Chivers and I agree with his comment in that it was fun to reconnect with him after these almost 48 years--where has the time gone. Hello to all. I'm wishing each of you every good thing.
