Since 1954 Wilson School has been a part of the Clements Circle neighborhood. Most of us in the area remember it only as the LPS Food Service building but a few long time resident remember having their children go there in the early years. An article in today’s Livonia Observer looks back at the memories of several residents, the thoughts of others and future of the Wilson School site.

Marcus

Marcus Delivering Mail

Anyone who lives in our neighborhood knew when the mail was about to arrive when Marcus was on his route.

But we won’t be seeing Marcus around the neighborhood anymore. Marcus was murdered last week. He often went to Detroit to check on his mother, who still resided there. In the course of attempting to stop a burglary in his mother’s home early Wednesday morning, he was shot in the back and killed.
