Photo 73-BLA-13

Comments

This roll of photos appear to be businesses circa late 50's early 60's along Route 45, Wildwood Illinois. This building was built as a school house. It is now Lewis Florist shop and has been incorporated into a small strip mall.

The sign reads, Gages Lake Baptist Church.

It was a school before it was a church. My mom went to school there (she was born in 1927). I got my first bible from the church....vacation bible school, June 1963.
