Passing of Two Twin Cities Icons
Twin Citians of a certain age (I qualify) will forever associate Mary Tyler Moore with her iconic ’70’s sitcom.
Runner-up associations: the Kenwood home featured in the show’s opening credits; and the photo (above) showing Ms. Moore exuberantly flinging her hat in front of Dayton’s department store in Downtown Minneapolis.
Ironically, scarcely 3 weeks ago, Dayton’s announced that it was closing its doors for good.
Of course, the store hadn’t been Dayton’s in decades. First, it got acquired by Marshall Fields, then it became Macy’s.
