Notes for HERSCHEL LLOYD STREET:
Herschel founded Chardon Radio Service in Chardon, Ohio sometime around
1941-42 and ran the business until his death due to a heart attack in 1948.
I beleve that he was only about 45 at the time.
Maxine, tried running the business for awhile with outside help, but closed
it after a short time. She then worked in the Geauga County Health
Department until her passing in 1962.
