    Re: Kress Store

    The AF's grandmother worked for Kress when they were at Windward City Shopping Center in Kane`ohe, where the Ross is now. Then Kress moved to a different space in WCSC (where the furniture store was/is?)

      Small kid time.
      Holo Holo.
      Big City: Lihue
      I was born in a small town.
      "No I cannot forget where it is that I come from
      I cannot forget the people who love me
      Yeah, I can be myself here in this small town
      And people let me be just what I want to be"

      Kress Store: Strawberry Icee and popcorn from the store's big popcorn machine.

        Ah, yes .... the COLORED POPCORN, the treats (BANANA SPLITS, SUNDAES, MALTS, HOT DOGS) at their fountain. The one on Fort Street also sold WAFFLE ICE CREAM SANDWICHES.

        At a promotion for the Hilo store 50 years ago, I won a door prize drawing for an electric skillet. The manager's daughter drew my name out of the box - they were my neighbors.

          Kress store was a favorite for Maui, along with Ben Franklins and Nat`l Dollar, till Long`s and Woolworth moved in. Love having lunch at Kress after shopping, just like at Woolsworth.
