Rex Gellerson was the manager and William White was the assistant manager of Sampson’s Super Market at 120 Main St., when the photo on the left was taken in 1970. Sampson’s went out of business and the next tenants were the Dexter Shoe Factory Outlet and the Parts Place, each occupying one half of the building. After Dexter Shoe and the Parts Place eventually moved, different businesses occupied the space over the years. Several years ago, the building was extensively remodeled and is occupied now by Amato’s and Car Quest Auto Parts.
