Old Wickersham and Downey Schools

From James Hoffman, March 18, 2003
Again it is always rewarding to read these articles, I had the opportunity to attend Wickersham School and also the Old Downey Elementary School before it was demolished when the new Downey school was opened. In fact my teacher was Mrs. Hicks.
Respectively Yours,
James C. Hoffman
