MEMO: PATRICIA ANN'S NOW OPEN IN DOWNTOWN CAPE

Judith Anne's has become Patricia Ann's in downtown Cape Girardeau.

Bob and Patricia Blade recently opened Patricia Ann's at 130 N. Main.

The Blades moved to Cape Girardeau from Malden, Mo.

Patricia Blade, who works in real estate for Prudential Bridgeport Realty, will continue to work in real estate and will have a full-time sales person, Phyllis Humphries, at the store.

"We've added some antiques and silk flower arrangements," Blade said.

The store is open Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The store was originally opened as a bed, bath and home decor center. Items available included cards, candles, lace curtains and a number of gift items.
