Marquette, MI When I saw the shop for Sam’s Shoe Repair, I was walking on N. 3rd St. in Marquette. Images began forming in my head of what such a shop, and Sam, would look like. I walked in and saw a flannel-shirted back facing me. “Sam?” I asked. Without turning, “Sam’s my dad, I’m Louis,” was the response. Louis Roumanis, who moved to America from Greece when he was 8 years old, has been a shoe cobbler for about 30 years. He works in his father’s old shop and uses his father’s same tools and machinery. We had a nice visit-Louis held short, thoughtful conversation as he talked while repairing a boot zipper-then parted ways.

This girl turned 16 today! The joy and comfort she brings into our lives on a daily basis is immeasurable. She’s super smart, funny, loving, greets us at the door, loves to hug, can distinguish cheese and butter being opened from any other sound, has prevented us from needing an alarm clock, sleeps between us every night and protects the house from squirrels and mourning doves when they get too close. We love you Harriet, Happy Birthday!
