(Above) Page one of a handwritten six-page submission by Ivy Potts about her memories of Lloyd's Store for a contest held on the 50th anniversary of Lloyd's store in 1997. Her submission won fourth place. View Ivy's full submission and a typed transcript.
Lloyd's Store was the original store, built by Al Lloyd in 1947 who operated Pender Harbour's first self-serve store for many years. With some owners, it had different names. When George and Francis Taylor bought it, it became Taylor's Garden Bay Store. Later, new owners named it John Henry's as it is known today.
