Bury Brothers part of town history

When Bill and I were first married and lived by the Moodus Green in the old Advertiser building, I had painted a painting for the Bury Brothers to hang in the meat market to pay off a debt we had rung in meat products in the early 70's as payment. They took it gracefully and extinguished our monthly bill. It was of hereford cows. I'm hoping one of the family members still has possession of it. They were great people and "down to earth folk, always helping their neighbors and fellow man. They are truly part of Moodus history and I will always keep them in my heart.

Sincerely,

Moodus connections run deep

I so enjoy this site. I lived on Plains Road, 1951, across from the then Moodus Savings Bank by Dr Berwick. Julian Bury was my Godfather and I was a freshman when Bud was a Jr or Sr. Uncle Julian and Uncle Joe where wonderful-wonderful people and I loved them dearly!! My dad Frank Larsek was born in Moodus in 1925, married my Mom who is still living and my cousins still live there. The Sidell family across from Hale Ray. 

I moved from Moodus in 1986 and now live in South Carolina. My mom is now 84 and Daddy passed at 61. He was best friends with Danny Maus. My name is Christine Larsek Rowland Fusco and thank you for these wonderful memories. My Dad worked at Russell Jennings in Chester, it then went to be known as Stanley Works. Go figure. Then he spent the rest of his work time at Sibleys in Haddam and my Mom worked at the café  at Hale Ray. MY mom is still best friends with Alice Tesar and Genny Bielot. 

Thanks for the memories.
