We moved in next to Alice and her husband "Town" when we bought our house almost 6 years ago. Town lived in that house his whole life...he was born there, and later bought it from his father and raised his own family in it with Alice.
Town passed away about 3 years ago, and Alice just sold the house and moved.
Town was well known in Ridgewood for having built a very large (20' x 20') train set and miniature village in their living room. He spent years building everything by hand. There were thousands of people in his village, all hand-painted by him.
After we first moved in, Pete went over to visit, and Town gave him a few of those people.
I just found them.
Here are two of them.
