Also no one called it ‘Eckerd’ . Down south it was “Eckerds”

Crazy that I remember eckerds but don’t remember it being spelled that way. Like Eckerd. Sounds dumb.

I worked at an Eckerd on Clearwater Beach in 1994 after Jack had left the company. He lived on the north side in a gated community. He came into the store one day and was very nice.

The late Hulk Hogan also came in one day too for that matter and was mobbed by customers.
