Q: In 1936, eight-year-old Ernie Ireman of the hamlet of Dixboro, MI attended his first youth choir practice of the Dixboro Methodist Episcopal Church. It was held upstairs, above the 1840 Dixboro General Store, Plymouth @ Cherry Hill Roads, which remains open today.

The choir director was the wife of the church pastor, John Luther. Later, Ernie surprised his parents by insisting he would not attend the choir practice the following week. Why?

A: From his perch above in the second floor practice room, through a window he saw Mrs. Luther conversing in the parking lot below smoking a cigarette. Ernie was known as the "egg man" and delivered eggs to the Dixboro residents from his family farm.
