Hometown to the famous tool, channel locks.

During and after college in SUNY Fredonia me and my friends would drive down to Meadville to check out concerts. Lots of new up and coming bands would play in that town

Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

The liberal actress Sharon Stone was born in Meadville and attended Edinboro University but didn't graduate from that school. Stone's father was a Tool and Die worker maybe working at the same company Turtledale mentioned.

There's a Fullerton's and a Flick's TV and Appliance, but no French's that I know of. Leslie Rd is still nice, well kept homes and the County fairgrounds. I go by a few times a week taking the kids to soccer.

The second house on Leslie was my grand parents, lots of great memories

The store I didn't think would make it, my grandparents sold it

after close to 50 years around 1980

Thanks for your help
