Oops, my mom says the grocery store wasn't in Hamilton. Here's how it should read:
"Gail Martin now has a second book out. This one is Clyde Owen Martin: Family Memories of His Life and Times. Clyde also grew up in Greenwood County. His parents, Ren Ren worked at the Coop grocery store as a meat cutter after they moved to Madison. Later they bought a grocery store in Reading. Before that Ren and Cora Martin owned a farm in the Prairie Belle school district."
