I read Dan Rodricks’ column on Miss Margie with a tear in my eye (“Dan Rodricks: In Baltimore, celebrating the Other Mother from next door,” May 10). I knew Miss Margie from St. Casimir’s Church and the Hatton Senior Center and, of course, from just seeing her walking around Canton. My story has to do with a discussion with her at a breakfast or lunch at St. Casimir’s after Mass. I was telling her that my family owned Julian’s Polish Cocktail lounge on Boston Street during the 1940’s and 1950’s. But in the long run, they acquired other families as is the story of Miss Margie and Pam Rostek-Kuwazaki.
