I am the daughter of Mary Love and Malcolm McGuckin. I was born in 1924 so I grew up with the Maramor restaurant, and I have fond memories of it The Maramor candy business was the best part. I used to visit the candy kitchen and sneak pieces of candy when no one was looking. The name Maramor is a contraction of Marie Amour. I was named after my mother (Mary Love) Here is a bit of Maramor history.

He was a cartoonist. I may have to blog about it all on one of my Columbus blogs. I found the artist online by Googling the name in the corner of your postcard. He was a cartoonist.
