The Lawrence We Remember: Waymire's Grocery

Back in the mid 70's when I was attending KU--the first time--I had a girlfriend who worked as a checker at Waymire's grocery store. Occasionally, I would drop her off or pick her up from work. As a student living in a dorm, with all my meals furnished, I don't think I ever had a reason to go in.

When I moved back to town in the early 80's it was gone. At least I don't recall it so I'm assuming it disappeared sometime while I was gone. The street it was on has changed enough that I'm not exactly sure which block it was on.

Does anyone else remember it?
