COOK- If all goes well at a July 8 county permit hearing, the former St. Louis County Public Works garage in Linden Grove will become the eventual home of a new business turning out custom countertops, and a homecoming of sorts for a Cook native son.
Darrel Kaml is a 1985 Cook High School graduate and his father, Frank, still lives in Cook. He also has a couple of brothers who live nearby. And while life long ago led him to California’s Central Valley and a successful business career in the custom tile and construction industry, he’s had an eye on finding his way back to the area for several years. Buying the former county garage building provides an opportunity to take a big step in that direction.
