    Condolences for the Elvis family & Friends

    To the Elvis Family: We had all hoped and prayed for a happy ending. I'm very sorry for your loss. We don't know why God allows evil things to happen. However, we have the assurance that Heather is with Jesus now and you will see her again someday. I will continue to pray that the Lord...

    I returned to the cemetery today and took some friends who had a digital camera. At first, Kathy's grave was no where to be seen. Then I noticed a pile of leaves and began brushing them off. There was her plaque underneath. I'm glad I found her plot last week as I would have never found it...

    I called Spring Hill Cemetery this morning and spoke with Jessica about the location of Kathy's burial site. She was very pleasant and after doing a bit of research, she called me back with the information. The first thing she asked was if I knew Kathy was only 12 years old. I explained that...

    As I continue to look over the color photo of Thompson Lane at Nolensville Rd, I believe it's looking east on Thompson Lane. It appears the Gulf sign is on the lot where White Castle now stands. The road dips at Nolensville Rd and then rises again (which explains why the intersection always...

    I've always wondered if the current building at the AWRD location is actually the same one. I've heard some folks around here use the term "tore down" and others just say "closed". Sure wish there was a photo of the actual AWRD building for us to be sure. December, I hadn't read your...

    Speaking of Marcia....I've read that the garage had been searched beforehand and found nothing suspicious. It was speculated that they held her (or her body) elsewhere before it was found under the plastic pool in the garage.

    Thanks for posting the school photos. I believe I found smaller versions of those. Photo #1 appears to be what was the original main entrance to the school. I appreciate the fact that they put the name "Woodbine" above the arch. That was my clue that I had found the correct place.

    After reading that Kathy attended Woodbine Elementary, I decided to find the school. Unfortunately, it's no longer in the Nashville school system and there was very little info on it. Well....I finally found it! It's currently a health center & Woodbine Community Center and is located at the...

    There are about 9-10 trees on the right side of the lot (looking from the alley) and they look as though they have been there a long time. I'm not a tree expert but height and the circumference of the trunks give me that idea. The trees are in a straight row which makes me think they were...

    Arnie: Thanks for the video. It's interesting to note that the car is turning into Famous State Sales (currently Performance Studios) which is where RD would have been located!

    Bessie: you do have the landmarks in the correct locations. Nola: I agree with December about the adult bookstore. I remember hearing some folks talking about it in the '90s. I don't think it was there any earlier.

    I remember going to the Thompson Lane/Nolensville Rd WC back in the late '80s. Guess I was thinking it had been there a lot longer. After writing about WC, I got the hankerin' for some and went there last night. Of course a family of six got there right before me (sigh). I wanted to ask...

    There really isn't much (nor is there much space) behind the Title & Cash Advance building: Just a dumpster and a gravel area for parking. As for photos....I really haven't found much concerning the Woodbine area. However, I'll keep looking and keeping my fingers crossed!

    Nola, I understand your obsession about looking for photos. I find myself staying up to all hours as I discover new websites. I usually have to bookmark them and continue the next day. With a copy of the Gulf station photo in hand, I parked in Eckerd's lot which is about the location where...

    I drove down the alley again today and noticed the lot is fenced on three sides leaving the KK side open. So I parked in KK's parking lot and walked around. I did notice several large trees on the right side of the lot (looking from the alley). I was amazed how soft the ground was (I know...

    Thanks for the greetings Bessie. After reading all the references to the Grandview Ave alley, I checked Google Maps and realized that it's currently still there! In fact, I believe all the alleys in that area are still being used. So....being the curious person I am, I drove down it. It...
