Anderson Store
Employees standing in front of the Anderson Store building in Red Cliff, Colorado, on March 23, 1940. At far left is Ronnie Dump. Roy Marfitano is second from left. The young lady standing next to Roy is Earline Paquette. The 1940 Ford delivery truck, "Carl G. Anderson, Groceries, Meats, Dry Goods," is parked to the left of the employees. The building was on the east side of Eagle St. and the very east end of Water Street. It had a number of different owners and operators over the years. ["I believe that Mango's Bar and Grill is now near or on all or part of the land that once held the Anderson Store." -- Len Dumph 2010] In 1935, the building held Clooney's Store. There were apartments in back and upstairs in the building. Ruby Dump Crye and husband, Jim, lived (1949/1950) in one of the apartments when Tom Diviney owned the store. Riepenhoof had the store in the late 1940s-early 1950s before relocating across the street. Pearl Dump Mize worked for Riepenhoff in 1946.
