47 years selling and repairing Jewelry in Downtown Henderson KY

Posted on November 1, 2010 Written by Nibby Priest

Louise Mattingly (AKA Hat Lady) is retiring today from Campbell’s Jeweler.

She has worked there for over 47 years and is 84 years old.

What a career of selling and repairing jewelry for the folks in Henderson KY.

Campbell Jeweler has been in operation in downtown Henderson KY since 1962.

Louise is often called Mrs. Campbell.  Her almost instant reply is “oh I’m not– my husband Bill had hair!”  Louise is known for her fine fashions and impeccable style and wit.  She will be missed in downtown.

A reception is being held in her honor today at Campbell’s Jeweler from 10 am till 4 pm.

What is your favorite story about Louise?
