NOTE:
The following story was submitted by e-mail. We have
since recieved and update that the previous owners
name was Dean.
Winter
of '96, I was one of the cooks at Mac's Inn. After
starting work there, I was told that the previous
owner (Barry if I remember right) died of a heart
attack in the upstairs apartment. He and his wife
had had the restaurant for about 5 years, and loved
the place. Well, he is still there. I saw him a couple
of times in the kitchen, and an occational cold spot.
He would only appear when there were only a couple
of people in the building. Well, one Sunday morning
I was cooking for this family of five, and just taken
down a bowl, secured the bowls (they would
vibrate off the shelf from walking) and went into
the dining room to deliver the oatmeal. There was
only the six of us in the restaurant. I had just set
the bowl on the table, when we all just about jumped
out of our skins from a crash in the kitchen. Two
bowls had fallen off the shelf, and on hit the floor
and broke. He didn't like me working Sundays (he was
devout Mormon) and would appear most on Sundays. Being
the only non-Mormon, I got Sunday until 2pm by myself,
and frequently "felt" his presence. I never
got a bad feeling from him, he just liked to give
me a hard time. |
