This is the entrance to the "West Manchester Mall". The buildings and billboards are no longer there. In its place is a Sheetz, gas pumps, a small strip mall and a McDonalds.

My grandfathers home, his house is in the lower right corner, hidden by a tree, that's his garage and office in the middle, Lagaores was a small hamburg place next door (small building on the left of the garage) We swam in my grandpa's pool every weekend, and would walk over to lagore's to get lunch and soft icecream cone's! He had a top soil business in my younger years, and retired, then went into renting out his garage to a frind who did car inspections / tire sales from the garage! My grandpa was an Eisenhour, Raymond, with a large family who still reside in the area today! Myself, I moved to Florida in 1990, and I had been back once to visit before the changes took place! Looking at this picture brings back a lot of wonderful memories growing up there as a granddaughter, I'm now 60 years old and remember it well!

Legores not Lagores, and is Raymond Eisenhour father of Donnie, driver of the # 39? Raymond and his wife were best friends with my mother and step dad, had a residence at Lake Meade, near East Berlin.
