I'll always remember summers working at the Whitney Shop 1975-78 under Gigi Gunther, Mrs. Whetstone, Inga and others and our admiration of Mrs. Stinchfield's work ethic, business savy and diction! She was very exact in her directions to move things to the "Backkk" of the store or to mark codes on price tickets in "eeFaa Dear". She demanded and got all of our respect. From the beehive purses, belts & buckels, Tatiana perfume and Carolee jewelry, children's section, Diane Von Furstenburg and Lilly Pulitzer dresses to the signature bow in her hair - she was a very wonderful and memorable icon of New Canaan.
