Mickey Lee, who has cut hair for both men and women in the JC Heights, (Bowers off the Blvd) will close shop this Sunday. I remember how surprised and pleased he was when I told him that a JC Lister advised someone considering moving into the Heights to talk to Mickey Lee to get the scoop on the neighborhood because - and I am paraphrasing here - the man knows everything.

A good man who grew up in Jersey City and kept his business to maintain his roots, Mickey Lee is another victim of "change you can see" - rising taxes with little to show for them.

If you want to say good-bye to Mickey, he should be open from 8:30 to noon on Sunday the 23re, his final day of business.
