LETTER: Barber retires

Published 2:16 pm Saturday, August 15, 2009

After nearly six decades in barbering, I am retiring. I finished barber school in 1948. My first job was in St. Paul. Later I moved to Austin and worked for my uncle, Bob Holgate. I also worked for Bill Mayer before buying out Art Anderson’s Art the Barber Shop and renaming The Hair Hut.

I finished my barbering career with more than 12 years at MidTown Barbers.

At this time, I would like to thank my customers. I know I cannot name all of you. I also know I will miss all of you.
