original location closed so you thought you got me.


No it was the actual store, the new one you are referring to is a spin off by a family member apparently. Judy C Martin Inc was a big store here in Monroe for a while not “Legacy of Judy Martin” which 99% of people have never heard of in Monroe is my point. But stick up for your people I get it.

I can’t remember what it was called in the 90s. I’m sure someone will.


Gabbeaux's and Bayle's Landing before that.

Meth cut with fentanyl. You either die (and avoid spending time in Monroe) or you’re catatonic for a few days. Win win.

Yep. Nobody has heard of it even though Judy helped start it, it's literally named after her and they've been in business since 2010.

Why is it so important to you to not admit you just didn't know about the store?

No offense intended but the best thing to do in Funroe is to leave Funroe.
