in the olden days, with no Internet? Say, the 60s. Had to be less stressful.
I guess everyone just went about their lives until word came down.

Campisi's circa 1961. Orsini and Jones meet about the opening:
SO: Uh June, say that's kind of a funny name. Have a cigarette?
JJ: Sure
SO: John, We've got these younguns' that need a coach. We'd offer you a little place over on McCommas- get you set up real nice.
JJ: It's June.
SO: Yes, we can get you in there by June.
JJ: No, my name is June.
SO: Yeah John. We can get you some gift certificates for a few free meals over at Goff's and some clothes trade at Tiche's for the little lady.
JJ: Can you pay my moving expenses from Hawaii?
SO: No, but we might could meet you in say Dumas with a trailer if you can get there by yourself.
JJ: Can I sleep on it?
SO: Son, I don't have all day.
