Happy Memories from the beginning of the Wildey … My husband, Harris "Binky" Berleman, was 92 when he died six years ago. He told of having many fights behind the Wildey on his way home from school. Also, he and his Uncle Fred "Fritz" Berleman, both loved Western movies. Harris lost his father when he was six years old. He would stand at the entrance to the Wildey and when his Uncle saw him standing there, he would give him a dime to go in and see the show. I'm now 97 and have many fond memories of the Wildey.
