Been going here 40+ years, my dad who was a firefighter went 60 yrs ago. This man is beloved in the community and beyond and will be missed by all. Thanks for the memories Brian...you can rest now.

I know the pizza oven owner personally who will be retiring and turning 90 this Saturday.

Man I loved their pizza. I ate this most of my life. I'm gonna miss it. If you say it was nasty, your high.

I've seen his type and I can predict his future. The man worked hard all his life and even worked 25 years past retirement age. Work gives him something to look forward to and a reason to get out of bed every day. Once his "reason to live" is gone he will just lay down and die. I've seen it happen many times over the years.

If you got your news from more than one source .... NBC4 said he's having 2 surgeries and then he, his wife, and their 12 kids are going to travel. He wouldn't be closing if it weren't for the Purple line. Hopefully, you feel like a f00l.
