ADDENDUM  to Obituary

Since Floyd’s employment was listed in this obituary I can’t let pass what probably was his first job. He operated the 'back of the house', of the former Home Service Laundry, through at least the early to late 1940’s. I recall going to the side window and calling him to talk many times, when I was passing by.
