Just down the way from Wyoming’s Biglow Field grandstand was Bill’s Appliance Store, owned and operated by longtime resident Bill Homminga and his wife Gerry. Located at 3837 S. Division Ave., the business was constructed on the northwest corner and was one of many strores in the odd place, often below the road of the crows, according to the historical book about the City of Wyoming, “Wilderness to Wyoming.” Another business in the area was Dutler’s Unclaimed Freight, adjacent to the appliance store.
