Above / Though Lake Osborne just west of the Naperville Public Safety Center on Aurora Avenue was not there when Ron Keller was a kid, fishing for bass is reported to be good there early in the morning or evening.
When I was about three years, I had blonde curly hair. One day I was in downtown with my parents when they were shopping at Broekers’s (a department store) looking for a new jacket for me. It would have been 1942. When we came out of the store, a woman coming toward us exclaimed, “What a cute little girl!”
My dad immediately took me to Henczel’s Barber Shop and the curls were gone!
Back then I believe Naperville had four barbershops. I’ve lost count of how many today. But I still go to Henczel’s.
