Me Root was a big part of my teenage years. A very nice man who really cared about the kids that hung out in his store. Lots of fun memories.
My condolences to the Root family.

Mr Root was a caring and soft spoken gentle man to all of us who made the soda fountain the place to go. I have fond memories of the time spent there.
Rest in peace Mr Root.
