Me Irwin was original shoe shine man at Tiger Barber Shop. When he died, Eddie?, came from Forum Barber shop back downtown to work for Bob Ronchetto. Eddie and Bob worked together at a barbershop for a man named Pat? That was located one block north and on other side of the street from where Tiger shop is.

because I had brothers, my dad would take us all to get our haircut by "Uncle Bob" Ronchetto at Tiger Barber Shop on 9 th. it didn't faze me at all until I was called a boy a couple of times and by age 10 I demanded Campus Beauty Shop, which used to be next to the Old Shack and was destroyed when that small cluster of businesses were cleared by MU.

Are you talking about "The Bakery" from the 60's and 70's? They were located between 5 th and 6 th next to Columbia Auto Parts and some diner on the corner. Not sure what is there now....I think it is a tattoo parlor and before that an antique store.
