SCHUYLKILL MEMORY LANE QUIZ
Clue: This week’s picture shows three young boys. One has moved to Harrisburg, the middle one is deceased, but the one of the right brings cheer almost daily to everyone in the vicinity at this time of the year, and is especially a favorite of all the widows, who look for his cheery smile and daily friendly greeting. We know he’s your favorite for the Christmas edition.
Answer: Last week’s photo showed Lamar Heberling on the left, now living in the Harrisburg area; in the center the late John Riskis; and on the right is Richard Riskis, mail carrier for the Tower City Post Office.
