Joe Landry talks about the Morse Block - Weds, Feb 4 at 1:00 PM


"My next presentation will be at the Franklin Senior Center on the Morse Block. I hope you can attend!"

"Hi there!!! I will be doing my next presentation on Wednesday, February 4th at 1:00 at the Franklin Senior Center. 
This presentation will discuss the Morse Block on East Central Street and how it evolved over the years. Many long-time residents of Franklin will remember when Franklin Furniture did business there. And we'll also discuss the building where the Woonsocket Call branch office was.  
Those of us who had paper routes will remember getting their papers from Dutchie Gilbert. After that, Ficco's Shoe Repair Shop did business there. You'll see many pictures and videos of the block and other buildings that stood there that will be of interest. 
If you are planning to attend, please call the Senior Center at 508-520-4945 to let them know that you'll be coming so that we'll have a good idea of how many chairs to set up. I hope to see you then."
