Historic Picture: Kozy Korner Restaurant, Greensburg, KY 2011-08-21 - N. Main ST, Campbellsville, KY - Photo from the Larry Smith collection. Larry Smith writes: "Here's a 1958 photo of the Kozy Korner Rest on Main Street in Greensburg. My best memory of the rest was that the food was good and if you ordered a Coke the waitress always brought you a Double Cola. Greensburg was well known for supporting the community and Double Cola and Ski supported every child who went through the Green County School system. The Despain family owned Greensburg Bottling Company. They treated every student to a free Ski or Dubb, Chips and a pencil at least once per year, and Double Cola was a hit at the Kozy Korner. Greensburg was just a wonderful place to grow up in. Green County people are very simliar to Adair County folks - just laid back people with answers to life's problems. Growing up in Green County we were just basic down to earth people who cared about our neighbors and always went the extra mile to help. A photo like this one reminds us of much simpler times." Larry Smith, Operations Manager, Shoreline Communications, the Wave, FM 92.7 and the Big Dawg FM 99.9. The wrap-around windshield indicates a ca 1950s era for the photo. The building to the left was the Ford dealership of the time, then on N. Main, later north of town toward Summerville, KY, the Boyhood Home of Larry Smith. -CM Permalink | Comments?
