    I lived on Summerville Road in Decatur from 1955-1959 and attended Summerville Road Elementary and Walter Jackson Elementary schools. I was 8 years old when we moved away, but I remember that my parents were crazy about Gibson's Barbecue. I am glad to see it is still thriving. My sister and I walked to Blue Haven swimming pool every afternoon in the summer--good times! We also played at Delano Park often. Enjoyed the video!
