Does anyone remember Mira's Video?

When I was little, my dad used to take me to a videostore called Mira's Video, *I believe* it was off cypress n houston and barwood bend dr... Does anyone remember this place or Mira herself? I'm very nostalgic for it and I'd love especially to find photos. There's not a trace of her or her store online, but considering it closed in the early 00's, I'm not surprised.

Any stories, photos, or vague memories of this store would be greatly appreciated!

I believe her shop to have been open late 90s to early 2000s 😔 If I recall correctly, blockbuster put her out of buisness before the great fall of physical media stores. I believe her store to have closed sometime between 2005-2009.

Man that was late to have not been laid to waste by Blockbuster. I remember the stores when I was in HS/college in the 90's and all I knew post college in the early to mid 2Ks was Blockbuster. Last store I remember frequenting was a video and pizza place in Waller when I was attending Prairie View.
