The following comment was response to the following "DoubleO Sims Grocery, Vol. 7, Iss. 45, OkieLegacy ezine and "Remember When."

"Linda, this a picture taken inside the DoubleO Sims Grocery on the northeast corner of the square taken in the late 30's. My Dad, Harold Walker worked in there and my Grandfather H.G. Walker was the county treasurer at that time. I can remember my Grandma taking me in that store when I was real young and they would let me have a lump of brown sugar which was kept in the bulk in a big bin along the side of the store toward the front. Pictured are: A.P. Sims, Dan Bergen, Bill Fletcher, Glen Fox, Harold Walker, Parker Fox with the straw hat, and Ed Hazzard, the butcher. My Dad also was the cook in the Bell Hotel at one time."
