HISTORY
Shortly after buying the Orin Woodbury Home, Walder & Carolyn May built this building onto the front of the old home.The building was used for the May Flowers floral shop.
After May Flowers was closed in August of 1993, the building was taken over by the May's son, David C. May, for his business, Internet Effects.
On May 13, 2010, David had the old granary on the property removed to provide more parking for the business.
The Woodbury home was demolished in October of 2011 to make room for future expansion of the building.
