Historical February 1980 report or notice. Original dates, prices and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.
The new year, which began with more than enough noise-making throughout the neighborhood, also began with a host of new arrivals.
Stephen Eaker and Barb Lundgren are the new owners of Joseph and Kathy Pfeffer’s home in the 6100 block of Kingsbury. Stephen is with D’Arcy-MacManus and Masius Inc.. and Barb is completing a degree in psychology at Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville. Both are from Chicago, only three blocks from the famous Wrigley Field. Appreciation of city living brought them to our area.
The 6100 block of Westminster Place has had its share of turnover, and welcomes Stephen and Diane Niewoehner and Sandy and Johnny Sims. The Niewoehners moved ‘from Clayton. and the neighborhood was recommended by Ken Cohn, a working partner of Stephen at Glasco Electric Company. The Sims joined the neighborhood in November with their three children, Alyssa (10 years old). Tammie (8 years old), and Jennifer (21 months old). Our area satisfied the Sims’ preference for an older home which prompted them to leave St. Louis County. You will see the Sims on the run with Johnny at Intertherm and Sandy working full-time as a nutritionist for the Visiting Nurses Association, not to mention raising three children. Alyssa and Tammie are presently attending Concord Lutheran School.
William and Mary Taylor are new residents in the 6100 block of McPherson. We welcome them enthusiastically and at the same time bid farewell to Dan and Norvel Tammany. the previous owners of the Taylor home. The Tammanys. who were long time residents of the neighborhood, purchased a condominium in south St. Louis County. Dan grew up in the McPherson home which had been in his fam ily as far back as the early 1900s. We hope the Taylors will enjoy the home and stay as long as the Tammanys did.
