Harold “Spike” Murphree cubsareus@aol.com thrive, providing locals and travelers with a place to stop, eat, socialize, and enjoy the small-town atmosphere. The café also provides live music on Friday nights, along with a popular catfish dinner. Furthermore, six years ago, Willard residents David Dean and Yolanda Gallegos resurrected a little of Willard’s past by converting the historic Mourfield Mercantile building into a mini-mart and renaming it The Store. Not only does the establishment provide food and other items but it also displays memorabilia from Willard’s past and is an interesting place to take a break from the road.
Could this spell a revitalization of this once-thriving railroad town? Only time will tell.
