"And right across the street from the Mohawk Theater next to Pizzi's clothing was my mother's store, the Mohawk Gift Shop. She gave me free Valentine cards when I shoveled the snow in February, and I sent them to all of the girls in my class! I went ot Mark Hopkins at the time and was in the 5th through the 8th grade when the store first opened, so I guess I was 10-13 at the time."
