Nice read about a 107 year old small grocery store in rural Pennsylvania keeps going in an environment that has everything in favor of the "big boys".
I love that the grocery is cooking nice food in the back to include Italian dishes. The owner knows and greets the customers- a whole lot to like about this store and its owners and it story.
I always think- if the USA would allow free market in healthcare and related industries- the USA would see a boon in high quality small "Mom and Pop" shops. I speculate the owners of this shop have their healthcare covered under Medicare, or part of the Owner's retirement plan from the printer he worked at for 40 years. The owners appeared to have worked hard their entire lives- and continue to work hard- KUDOS to them.
