The above waitress, Jane Waller, was from Delmar. She was the daughter of Adlai Handy Culver and Georgia M. Nichols. She had married, in 1931, Harry Edward Waller (1908-1993). Born in 1914 in Cape Charles, Virginia Jane Culver was the granddaughter of Ernest Nichols and Annie Beauchamp Nichols. Her uncle was Howard Nichols who ran the Avenue restaurant so she probably was around food service most of her life. In fact after leaving waitressing at the English Grill she became a school cafeteria worker and manager at Pinehurst Elementary school. She died of a stroke at Harrison House (nursing home) in Delmar in 1987.
