I received these fantastic photos from Steven
J. Calabro from Chesterfield, Virginia, son of the late Ruth &
Dr. Frank Calabro. I'm simply amazed at the stuff that is out
there. What is
in your scrapbook or attic?

STEVE ALSO SENT THESE TWO SHOTS FROM
THE EARLY 50's OF HIS GRANDFATHER'S HOSPITAL
Serving the community as a hospital,
I can personally vouch for what a great community asset it was,
thanks to the efforts of the Calabro Family. It was also historical
landmark (built in the 1700's) and like the Woodhull & Knapp
mansions such a crime for the town to abandon, let it get ruined
& then get torched
